Cypress Basin Hospice

What Cypress Basin Hospice does

Cypress Basin Hospice is a not-for-profit, community-owned hospice care provider founded in 1986 and headquartered at 207 Morgan St, Mount Pleasant, Texas, with a branch office in Sulphur Springs. The organization delivers family-centered end-of-life care to patients suffering from life-limiting illnesses (including heart disease, renal disease, liver disease, neurological disease, cancer, Alzheimer's, and pulmonary disease) across Titus, Lamar, and Hopkins counties in Northeast Texas (ZIP codes 75455, 75460, 75482). Care is provided primarily in the patient's place of residence — private homes, nursing facilities, assisted living, and retirement centers — with additional contractual relationships with acute care hospitals for inpatient pain/symptom control and respite care. An interdisciplinary team (IDT) model composed of physicians, RNs/LVNs, certified nurse aides, social workers, chaplains, bereavement coordinators, and trained volunteers delivers coordinated care 24/7, 365 days a year, with bereavement support continuing for 13 months after a patient's death.

The core service portfolio is anchored by the standard Medicare/Medicaid/insurance-reimbursed hospice benefit, supplemented by a Transitions Program (for chronic-illness patients not yet electing hospice), Camp Brave Heart (a free annual bereavement camp for children ages 6-12, operating since 2010), grief workshops and support groups open to the community, and a community thrift store plus annual fundraising events (Golf Tournament, Hearts for Hospice Ball, Hit for Hospice Clay Shoot, Light Up the Lake, Crawfish & Cornhole Tournament) to subsidize care for under- and unfunded patients. The organization holds CHAP accreditation, We Honor Veterans Level 4 partnership status, Hospice Honors Elite (2024) recognition, and a GuideStar Platinum Seal of Transparency (profile 75-2134105). A volunteer Board of Directors drawn from the local community provides governance.

The revenue model is reimbursement-driven rather than transactional. Primary streams are Medicare Part A hospice benefits, state Medicaid hospice coverage, and private insurance reimbursement, billed on a per-diem basis tied to patient census and level of care. A secondary revenue stream comes from community donations and memorials, which fund care for patients unable to pay. Sales and admissions are referral-led, sourced from physicians, hospital discharge planners, nursing home staff, and other healthcare providers, with no out-of-pocket cost to eligible patients. The company is privately held, has no parent organization, no funding rounds, and no disclosed revenue.

Covers services of the hospice interdisciplinary team, medications, medical equipment and supplies.
2. Medicaid Hospice Coverage: State Medicaid programs cover hospice services for eligible patients.
3. Private Insurance Reimbursement: Most private insurance plans have specific hospice benefits and reimbursement rates. Services covered include IDT services, symptom management medications, medical equipment and supplies.
4. Community Donations and Memorials: The organization receives generous donations and memorials from citizens of their communities and patient families to provide care for under-funded or unfunded patients. This community support allows expansion of services.
