ProblemU.S. hospice intake teams still stitch admissions together by fax, phone, and EHR screens. CMS counted 1,920,708 hospice beneficiaries and 6,642 hospices in FY2025, while Lime says manual intake still takes 1-3 days and 30-60 minutes of data entry per referral.
SolutionHospiceReady Desk is an admission-clearance queue that sits between referral receipt and the admission visit. It flags missing certification, election, payer, DME, and medication issues before staff burn time on cases that are not truly ready to admit.
Market opportunityGrand View Research pegs the U.S. hospice market at $31.2B in 2025, growing to $45.3B by 2033. A narrow SaaS wedge can charge $1.5k-$4k per site per month because a single saved admission day, denied claim, or avoided rework can cover the bill.
