A: To find out which medical doctors were associated with the license of a hospice corporation in California, you'll need to access public records or contact the relevant state regulatory agencies. The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is responsible for licensing and overseeing hospice programs. You can start by visiting their website or contacting their Licensing and Certification Division.

On the CDPH website, look for a section dedicated to hospice care, where you might find a searchable database or contact information for further inquiries. If the website does not provide detailed information on specific doctors, consider reaching out directly via phone or email. The staff can guide you on how to formally request the information you need, which may include submitting a public records request.

If you encounter difficulties navigating the state's system or if the information isn't readily available online, another route is consulting with local health care attorneys or professional licensing boards. They often have knowledge of the healthcare landscape and may be able to provide guidance or assist in obtaining the records you seek. Remember, protecting patient and provider privacy is paramount, so some information might be limited to what is legally permissible to disclose.
