Palliative care is team-based care that provides support and relief, usually alongside curative treatment, to those with complex or life-threatening conditions.

This webinar highlights recent state policies that expand access to palliative care and key takeaways from a new  Center to Advance Palliative Care report that spotlights home-based palliative care. A Hawaii state official also outlines developments and advancements to establish a Medicaid state plan benefit for community-based palliative care.
