Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients on the list of each NCC who do not have an Advance Directive on file in the Mayo electronic health record will be invited to participate.
  • This study will include community-dwelling adult patients with multiple chronic health conditions who do not have an Advance Directive document on file and their SDM/HCA if identified during the course of the intervention. We will accrue 40 patients and up to 40 SDM/HCAs to participate in this pilot study as subjects (80 total participants).

Exclusion

  • Because the ACP process, as part of self-management, is a deliberative process, patients with dementia or a serious, persisting psychiatric diagnosis identified in the medical record will be excluded. Patients whose cannot speak or read English will be excluded since it is beyond the scope of this pilot study to employ interpreters.
  • No vulnerable populations will be included in this study.
