PPC-CCF Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intervention (Implementing Patient Priorities Care)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patient Priorities Care requires the elicitation and documentation of patient health outcome goals and care preferences and the alignment of clinical care with health goals and healthcare preferences (collectively referred to as health priorities). Participants will be contacted by a trained priorities facilitator in-person or over the phone to elicit their health priorities. This information will be documented in the PPC- GOALS AND PREFERENCES form in the EHR and shared with the clinicians who will then use the Patient Priorities Care approach with patients to inform and guide treatment decisions.
Group II: Usual Care (Not implementing PPC)Active Control1 Intervention
Patients will receive routine clinical care.
