Name of podcast: Dr. Patient
Episode title and number: 34 Comfort Care: Palliative and Hospice

Episode summary:
Palliative and hospice care can be confusing, and are often synonymous with the idea of giving up. In this episode, I review what each one is, how they work with already existing healthcare and medical teams, how it helps family of a seriously sick patient, and how insurance coverage works.
