The Centre to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC) maintained the National Palliative Care Registry™ and in early 2021 the Palliative Care Quality Collaborative (PCQP) launched a new unified national palliative care registry that includes all historic National Palliative Care Registry™ data. The National Palliative Care Registry™ collected data once per year via an annual survey on participating palliative care programs operations, service delivery and processes. National Palliative Care Registry™ participation is free and open to all programs (including: hospital, home, office/clinic and nursing homes).
