How many hospice patients each year in the US?

Here is one example in 2009.... How many patients receive care each year? In 2009, an estimated 1.56 million patients received services from hospice (Figure 2). This estimate includes: • 1,020,000 patients who died under hospice care in 2009 • 294,000 who remained on the hospice census at the end of 2009 (known as "carryovers") • 243,000 patients who were discharged alive in 2009 for reasons including extended prognosis, desire for curative treatment, and other reasons (known as "live discharges").
