X-rays and laboratory tests in hospice.

A question that patients commonly ask when enrolling in hospice is, ‘‘Will I still be able to get lab tests and x-rays?’’ Because the focus of hospice care is comfort rather than cure, the doctor and nurse usually do not need lab tests and imaging studies like x-rays or scans. The focus of a hospice treatment plan centers on the patient’s symptoms rather than numbers from lab results or changes on an x-ray.
