It depends: If you have a potentially terminal illness, or are looking for a complete cancer progam you might. If you need cardiac surgery, orthopedics or other advanced care it is not likely to influence the decision. You want to pick a hospital based upon your needs, and the reputation of the staff and the hospital itself.

It is a postive.: All other things being equal, a hospital offering hospice services would indicate a sensitivity to providing good care at the end of life. In the us most hospice care is provided in the home or non-hospital settings. It would be important to ensure that they have a good out-patient care system to support whatever they have in the hospital.
