Professional orgs don’t always do a good job engaging with people on Twitter. One of things I love about hospice and palliative care orgs like NHPCO, AAHPM, SWHPN, and HPNA is that they aren’t afraid to have difficult conversations on Twitter.

#FactCheck Obviously Kennedy is lying because he was speaking officially. Also, technically he's implying that there's a non-terminal type of dying. Hospice is specifically for people who are expected to live less than seven months. NHPCO says the "typical" is 92 days. 30% die within a week.

If @NHPCO wants LGBTQ+ patients and families to feel safe seeking and receiving hospice care, first they need to demonstrate their commitment to measuring the quality of care received by LGBTQ+ patients and families.
NHPCO needs to add SOGI questions to CAHPS. Full stop.

The prompt response was appreciated but deeply unsatisfying.
I wanted to know the process for formally requesting that @CMSGov and @NHPCO add SOGI questions to CAHPS.
So, since there's apparently not a formal process to file a request, I'm using Twitter.

Also, I learned that what NHPCO referred to earlier today as an “outreach guide” is actually a resource guide (thank goodness!) The person who sent that tweet from NHPCO’s account is a dear friend of mine and they didn’t intend to get the name wrong.
