You were very gentle with me and I really appreciate it.
And it's really a pleasure to meet you.
Thanks, guys.
Stay safe.
Bye, everybody.
Very good memory, Dr. Smith.

That is correct.
So this is a report that is based upon the National Palliative Care Registry, which is a joint product of the National Palliative Care Research Center and the Center to Advance Palliative Care, which is a voluntary database where programs throughout the United States input information about
the structures and processes associated with palliative care delivery.
And we've been collecting data over the past 10 years, and this report really tracks some of the metrics associated with the growth of hospital palliative care in the United States.
I think there are a couple things beside that.
Obviously, as you know, the growth in palliative care has been rather rapid in terms of the number of programs since, oh, 2005.
And accompanying that has been a growth in the penetration of those programs into various hospitals.
So first of all, I think the biggest finding is that palliative care teams on average are seeing almost 5%
of hospitalized patients, but some teams are seeing up to 15 or 16%.
And the right number is probably somewhere between seven and a half to 15, depending upon the makeup of the hospital.
I think the other thing that we've seen that is equally impressive is the growth of teams that now support a full interdisciplinary team of a physician, nurse practitioner, or registered nurse,
Chaplain or social worker and social worker, sorry.
And that that was a very small group of programs many years ago, but is now increasing also rather exponentially.
