Study Summary

Using a cluster randomized design at the clinic level, this project will implement and test three real-world, scalable advance care planning interventions among primary care clinics across three University of California health systems. Seriously ill patients identified using data from the electronic health record will receive (1) an advance directive with targeted messaging, (2) intervention 1 plus prompting to engage with the Prepare For Your Care website, or (3) intervention 2 plus engagement from a clinic-based facilitator. A Research cohort of patients will provide complete surveys at baseline, 12 and 24 months. The main outcomes are advance directive completion among the population cohort and goal concordant care among the Research cohort at 12 months.

Primary Outcome

Proportion of patients that have advance care planning documentation (enduring advance directive, POLST or out-of-hospital DNR form in the electronic health record) at 12 months (or death) compared to baseline. Baseline date defined as the clinic intervention start date. Intention to treat analysis will use logistic regression models to account for patients clustered within clinics including covariates of patient age, gender, race/ethnicity, serious illness category, clinic baseline advance dire
