As you mentioned, it was published in JAGS in 2020, and we really started from the time of inception of POLST, so in the early 1990s, up until about February 2020 was the date that we cut off.

That’s why we do this podcast- to address real world issues in palliative care, geriatrics, and bioethics. And so I did all of my research training in health services research, health policy, and then was very grateful to be recruited by Dr. Christine Ritchie when she transitioned here to MGH in September of 2020.
Expert insights. Personalized for you.
