Keep every referral moving toward admission.

Hospice referrals arrive through calls, emails, hospitals, clinical professionals, facilities and families. HospiNotes brings every referral into one intake workflow, keeps the next action visible and gives leadership a clear view from first contact through admission.

Every referral accounted forEach inquiry has a source, owner, status and next step.
One view from intake to admissionYour team sees what is moving, what is waiting and what needs attention.

A referral pipeline built around hospice intake.

Your team should not have to reshape hospice intake around a generic sales funnel. We configure the CRM around the way referrals are received, screened, followed up and admitted at your agency.

01 · Referral pipeline

Every referral has an owner and a next step.

A referral should never disappear into an inbox or depend on one person remembering to follow up. HospiNotes records where the referral came from, who is responsible, what has been completed and what needs to happen next.

Referral capture: Log hospital, clinical professional, facility and family referrals with the source attached from the beginning.
Eligibility review: Record terminal diagnosis, coverage checks, required documents and clinical review within the intake process.
Intake stages: Use the stages your team already recognizes, from initial inquiry and records requested through admission or non admit.
Non admit reasons: Capture why a referral did not convert so patterns can be reviewed instead of forgotten.

Give liaisons a simple way to keep the record current.

Community liaisons are rarely sitting at a desk. HospiNotes gives them a fast, mobile friendly way to record a visit, update a referral source and schedule the next follow up while the details are still fresh.

Mobile activity logging: Record a facility visit, clinical professional conversation or new referral from a phone in a few steps.
Referral source history: See previous visits, open referrals, contact notes and pending requests before the next conversation.
Follow up reminders: Keep warm referrals and important source relationships from going quiet when the day gets busy.
Shared visibility: Intake and leadership can see field activity without waiting for a separate report.

03 · Referral source reporting

See which referral relationships are producing admissions.

When referrals carry their source from first contact through final outcome, leadership can see which relationships are active, which sources convert and where the intake process slows down.

Conversion by source: Compare referred patients, qualified referrals and admissions by hospital, clinical professional, facility or campaign.
Time to admission: Identify where records, eligibility checks, orders or follow up are delaying the start of care.
Liaison activity: Review visits and follow ups alongside the referrals and admissions connected to each source.
Leadership reporting: Bring referral development and intake performance into one monthly view for planning and accountability.

Operations · Hospice CRM

Bring your referral process into one clear view.

We will map how referrals enter your agency, where they slow down and what your team needs to see from first contact through admission.

Configured around the way your agency handles referrals.

The CRM is set up around your intake stages, roles and reporting needs so the system reflects the work rather than adding another process beside it.

Intake stages that match your process

Name and organize each stage around the path a referral follows at your agency, from first contact to admission or non admit.

Follow up that stays visible

Keep pending documents, eligibility questions and source touchpoints from being overlooked.

Role based access

Give intake, liaisons and leadership the access they need while protecting patient information under a signed Business Associate Agreement.

Leadership dashboards

Review referral volume, conversion, time to admission, source activity and non admit reasons without rebuilding the report each month.

Make the CRM with us

A CRM shaped around your intake, not a generic funnel.

We map your stages, sources and reporting with your team, then configure the CRM around how your agency already works.

Estimate the cost of referrals that lose momentum.

Use your monthly referral volume, referrals delayed or lost during intake and average revenue per admission to estimate what stronger intake follow up could be worth. We review the real causes of non admission before treating any result as an opportunity.

based on roughly 43 admissions a year if stronger intake follow up recovers half of delayed or lost referrals.

This is a directional estimate, not a revenue guarantee. Actual results depend on eligibility, patient choice, payer mix, service area, clinical appropriateness and the reasons referrals do not convert.

What leaders ask before changing referral workflows

We already have an EHR. Why do we need a CRM?
Your EHR manages the clinical record after a patient enters care. The CRM manages the work that happens before admission: referral sources, intake progress, pending documents, eligibility steps, follow up and the final outcome. The two systems solve different parts of the workflow.
Is this a generic sales CRM?
No. The pipeline is configured around hospice referrals, eligibility review, intake stages, admissions and non admit reasons. Your team does not have to translate patients and referral partners into sales terminology.
Will our liaisons actually use it?
Adoption depends on keeping the field workflow simple. Liaisons can log a visit, update a source and set a follow up from a phone without completing a long form. We also train the team around the moments when an update is genuinely useful.
Can we keep our current intake stages?
Yes. We begin by mapping the process your team already uses. Stages, source categories, ownership and required information are then configured around that process, with changes recommended only where they improve clarity or accountability.
How does it connect with Marketing and Telecommunication?
Calls, campaigns and referral development activity can feed the same source and intake record. This gives leadership a clearer view of where a referral began, how it was handled and whether it became an admission.
Is it HIPAA compliant?
The CRM is implemented with role based access and secure handling of protected health information. Every engagement involving PHI operates under a signed Business Associate Agreement. Final security and integration requirements are reviewed during implementation.

Better referral visibility for your entire team.

Implementation evidence centers on the measures teams can track: referral ownership, follow up timing, open next actions and documented non admit reasons.
