Wythe Palliative Care of Southwest Virginia
At Wythe Palliative Care of Southwest Virginia, we are more than an organization of palliative care professionals – we are proud members of communities across southwest Virginia. Compassionate, high-quality service is our mission. And to us, service means getting to know our patients on a personal level.
We know the people we serve, understand their needs, and tailor healthcare to ensure the best journey possible.
We’re passionately committed to making healthcare better every day by leading the industry in clinical excellence and service quality.
We empower our clinicians and staff to embrace the communities they serve, because the best care happens in the context of strong relationships.
Each patient and family we are privileged to serve is unique. Our ongoing mission is to provide specialized medical care that focuses on quality of life for patients dealing with the symptoms and stress of a serious advanced illness. Care that can be provided along with curative treatment, if you choose.
In collaboration with your provider, our palliative care team works with you and your family to provide the care your need. Dealing with a painful, serious illness is a challenging task. Our clinical experts offer an extra layer of support throughout a patient’s care continuum, increasing comfort, improving quality of life, and reducing avoidable ER visits and hospitalizations.

Medicare Part B will cover 80 percent of the cost of palliative care services for those patients over the age of 65 who meet the program’s eligibility requirements. In some cases, the 20 percent co-pay may be covered by a secondary insurance. We are happy to work with your insurer to see if your plan covers palliative care.
U.S. veterans enrolled in the VHA Medical Benefits Package are eligible for palliative care coverage if they meet the clinical need for the service. Learn more at the United States Department of Veterans Affairs website at va.gov.
