Our Partnerships
The NCHPC recognizes the importance of partnerships in advancing health care goals and initiatives that improve the care of people living with serious or life-limiting illnesses. As a result, the NCHPC partners with other leaders and/or members of several national public policy initiatives. No single organization can achieve the progress necessary to improve serious illness care for all across the lifespan, and our collaborative partnerships play a key role in improving health outcomes, creating quality standards, and advocating for health policy changes.

Clinical Practice Guidelines for Quality Palliative Care, 4th edition
Create a blueprint for excellence by establishing a comprehensive foundation for gold-standard palliative care, including evidence-based processes and practices for providing safe and reliable high-quality care for all people living with serious illness, regardless of their diagnosis, prognosis, age or where they live or receive care.

The Coalition brings together a wide variety of stakeholders who are deeply committed to the mission of hospice and palliative care and allows all participants to gain perspective from the various viewpoints, and a deeper understanding and appreciation of the field.
