Top 3 admitting terminal dx

Just curious....what are your top 3 admitting hospice terminal diagnoses? I will start. ..

1. CANCER

2. AFTT

3. ES Dementia/Alzheimers or COPD. (both generally run close in numbers)

I can remember, not too long ago, when cancer was a diagnosis we only used a few times a month. Now, we admit 1-3 cancer patients a week ......

Thanks in advance

My company hasn't allowed us to use debility in over a year. We were also told AFTT would have to stop being used over the next few months.
