But with those caveats, yeah, we can say that length of stay is reduced.
We can also say that among all comers who are going to get a palliative care consult, those who get it by default get it sooner and more often.

Getting palliative care does not change your odds of dying in the hospital, which is important to a lot of people.
And yet it does increase the odds that you're gonna be discharged to hospice care.
