Connie 13:10 So generally what, what I see, very rural, is a nurse practitioner that’s out of our local home health and hospice agency that is palliative care certified.

To me, I think the Greenhouse folks have proven that you can provide quality care in a home-like environment cost effectively if it’s done right. I think the bottom line is they’re nursing homes.

And we would provide ongoing longitudinal care to them in the home, much like the Mount Sinai Visiting Doctors programs, and other programs like that. And the treatments are different than what hospice might provide in the home setting. For the most part, programs are doing, twice a day, nursing visits. I trained at Hopkins.
