In this GeriPal podcast (55:57 minutes) guests Susan Hickman, Sean Morrison, Rebecca Sudore, and Bob Arnold discuss advance care planning. Topics address areas in which there might be agreement or disagreement including: (1) assigning a surrogate decision maker is important for everyone, including those who don't have serious illness; (2) where does POLST fit in with this debate?; (3) all decisions are made in advance, the question that we are debating is how far in advance and what to call it; and (4) completion of advance directives and billing codes for advance care planning as quality metrics.
