Vermont hospices: 9 Medicare-certified, source-cited identity + ownership data.
Ownership type, certification date, and CMS region for every Medicare-certified hospice in Vermont. CAHPS Hospice experience-of-care measures live in a separate CMS dataset (252m-zfp9) and are not included in this snapshot.
Editorial note: Vermont is a state where source-cited public-data coverage of hospice ownership is materially thinner than national averages — Fonteum prioritizes full provenance + state context here.
Ownership breakdown — Vermont
Hospice ownership concentration is the documented quality-of-care variable in policy literature; Fonteum surfaces the breakdown explicitly.
Hospice quality measures — what this page can and cannot show
Unlike nursing homes or home health, the CMS Hospice General Information file (yc9t-dgbk) that backs this page does notcarry star ratings or quality scores. Hospice quality is reported in the separate CAHPS Hospice Survey dataset (252m-zfp9), and CMS suppressed publicly reported hospice quality measures during the documented May 2026 → February 2028 transition to the new HOPE assessment.
Rather than fabricate a rating, Fonteum renders the fields that genuinely exist for every Vermont hospice: CMS-certified identity, ownership type, CMS region, and Medicare certification date. When the HOPE-based measures publish, they will land here traced to their source.
