Study Summary

Advanced liver disease is a serious illness that disproportionately affects Veterans, many of whom hope for curative liver transplantation. However, too few receive a transplant and most continue to suffer from increasing symptoms and hospitalizations. The proposed project uses a whole person, Veteran-centered approach that identifies Veterans with advanced liver disease using a population-based health management system and integrates curative and early supportive care using a telemedicine-based nurse care counselor to (1) discuss patient's understanding of illness severity and prognosis, (2) identify priorities and care preferences and (3) align curative and supportive care options to achieve patient priorities. Study outcomes include changes in (1) rates of consideration for liver transplantation, and (2) completion of serious illness discussions. Findings will inform adaptations to the intervention and facilitators for its dissemination.
