Not graded
We have not graded this hospice. CMS has published no Hospice Care Index, no family caregiver survey and no record of visits in the last days of life for it, usually because it is new, very small, or served too few patients for measures to be reported. We would rather say we do not know than give it a middling grade it has not earned.

What to ask about before you visit
These are findings in the public CMS record for this hospice. They are not our opinion, each one comes straight from the federal hospice quality file or the CMS family caregiver survey.
21% of live discharges happened soon after admission
A high early live-discharge rate can mean patients are being enrolled who were not eligible for hospice. Ask what happens to your Medicare hospice benefit if you are discharged.
What this costs you
If the patient has Medicare Part A and a doctor certifies a life expectancy of six months or less, the Medicare Hospice Benefit pays this provider directly. The family pays nothing for hospice visits, nursing, medicines related to the terminal illness, or equipment. No hospice may charge you for those and none may ask for a deposit. Medicare paid this provider an average of $11,800 per patient over the measurement period. That is what the federal government spent, not what a family pays, we publish it because it is the number the provider is paid on.
Was anyone there at the end?
Hospice is judged on the last few days more than anything else. These are this provider's numbers against the national average.

(575) 392-2060Questions families ask about Helping Hands Hospice
- Does Helping Hands Hospice cost anything?
- No. If the patient has Medicare Part A and a doctor certifies a life expectancy of six months or less, the Medicare Hospice Benefit pays Helping Hands Hospice directly for visits, nursing, equipment and medicines related to the terminal illness. The family is not billed for those and no hospice may ask for a deposit.
- Where does Helping Hands Hospice provide care?
- Most of this hospice's care is delivered in their own home, 100% of its patients. Hospice is a service rather than a place, so the team travels to wherever the patient is living.
