Texas
A quiet place to look up hospice care.
When someone is seriously ill, even a simple list can feel like a lot. This directory gathers Texas-licensed hospice agencies from the state’s public license roster, and — where a Medicare number is on file — the quality and family-survey measures CMS publishes. Nothing here is a ranking, a review, or a recommendation.
HHSC license roster, active as of November 9, 2026 CMS hospice files, released August 26, 2026
What you can look up
The roster currently lists 1,730 hospice locations in 140 Texas counties — 1,316 parent agencies, along with branch offices and alternate delivery sites, each kept as its own record. 1,021 of those rows include a Medicare number; 709 are licensed only. 25 list an inpatient unit on the license file.
A county on a license is the address of record, not a service area. Where CMS publishes ZIP codes a certified hospice serves, a ZIP search can show “hospices that serve that ZIP.”
