Duke Raleigh Palliative Care Clinic

Open
Type:Duke University Hospital Outpatient Department
Hospital-based clinics are outpatient departments of an individual Duke hospital and have additional facility charges. Some insurance companies process bills with a deductible and coinsurance rather than as a co-pay as for an office visit. This may impact the amount of the bill you are responsible for after payment from your insurance plan. Check with your insurance company before your visit to determine what your responsibility will be.

The goal of the outpatient palliative care program at Duke Raleigh Palliative Care Clinic is to improve the quality of life for both the patient and the family.
