  This fact sheet provides selected data highlights from the 2007 National Home and Hospice Care Survey (NHHCS), one in a continuing series of nationally representative sample surveys of U.S. home health and hospice care agencies.
  
  In 2007, 1,036 agencies participated in NHHCS. These agencies were either certified by Medicare or Medicaid or were licensed by a state to provide services to home health care or hospice care patients. Agencies that provided only homemaker services or housekeeping services, assistance with instrumental activities of daily living, or durable medical equipment and supplies, were excluded from the survey. Data were collected through in-person interviews with agency directors and their designated staffs.
