        <Desc>Palliative Care: Red River Valley Palliative Care is a program of Hospice of the Red River Valley. This community service is specialized medical care for people living with a chronic disease. It provides relief from the symptoms and stress of a chronic disease-whatever the diagnosis-in your place of residence. Individuals do not need to be homebound to receive care. Palliative care does not replace treatment of an illness; the goal is to ease and prevent suffering and improve quality of life for both patient and family members. Along with symptom management, palliative care can facilitate discussions with patients and families concerning prognosis and goal planning. Palliative care may occur while you receive treatments for your illness. In 2017, Red River Palliative Care served 337 patients.</Desc>

        <ExplanationTxt>Hospice is organized as a North Dakota nonprofit corporation and has been recognized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as exempt from federal income taxes under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c) (3). Hospice is annually required to file a Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax (Form 990) with the IRS. In addition, Hospice is subject to income tax on net income that is derived from business activities that are unrelated to it exempt purpose. Hospice has determined it is not subject to unrelated business income tax and has not filed an Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return (Form 990T) with the IRS. Hospice believes that it has appropriate support for any tax positions taken affecting its annual filing requirements, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. Hospice would recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax liabilities in income tax expense if such interest and penalties are incurred.</ExplanationTxt>
