Covers All Five Competitive Forces
This template covers all five forces with hospice-specific prompts: industry rivalry among local hospices, bargaining power of buyers (hospitals, SNFs, families), bargaining power of suppliers (DME, specialty pharmacies), threat of new entrants, and threat of substitutes (palliative-only services). Each force includes scoring guidance and evidence prompts so you can rate intensity quickly. Force-by-force clarity for decision making.
Industry-Specific & Market-Relevant
Designed for hospice and palliative care markets, the template references the Medicare Hospice Benefit, SNF and hospital referral flows, and senior demographic trends (65+).
