Advance Care Planning for Cancer
Study Summary
This trial will be testing three different ways to help people plan for their healthcare, by either providing them with information, prompting them to use a website, or engaging with them directly. They will be measuring how well these different approaches work in terms of getting people to complete an advance directive (a legal document that outlines someone's healthcare wishes), and whether people receive the care they want in accordance with their directive.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary goal of this clinical investigation?
"With the main aim of advancing directive completion within 12 months or death, this clinical trial will evaluate secondary objectives such as goal concordant care, cross-sectional survey over 24 months and new advance directive completion at 12 months. In order to account for patient clustering amongst clinics and other factors like age, gender, race/ethnicity etc., logistic regression models will be utilized in an 'as treated' analysis. Finally, a modified Bereaved Family Survey will measure caregiver reports on end of life care quality among decedents."
