Not yet, but the Owyhee Community Health Facility is planning on adding six
Swing beds, two Respite beds and two Hospice beds to our facility in 2004.

Subject: Query re: contract with Hospice Program


Query from an IHS hospital CEO:

Does anyone (IHS or Tribal) have a contract with a Medicare-certified
Hospice to provide inpatient hospice care under the Medicare Hospice
Benefit?

Thanks
