It would certainly improve their turnover and therefore their profits.

Hospices get paid for their services by the day. Hastening a patient's death would be counterproductive and decrease their profits.

Depends on what services they are providing. If they could gauge exactly how long each stay is, maximize revenue from a short stay and multiple the number of patients the increase in cash flow could fund expansion.
