Brief Summary:
A machine learning algorithm will be used to accurately identify patients in certain primary care units who may benefit from palliative care consults.
Detailed Description:
A machine learning algorithm will be used to accurately identify patients in certain primary care units who may benefit from palliative care consults. These patients will be presented weekly to a palliative care specialist in a custom user interface. The palliative care specialist will reach out to primary care teams if she determines that the patient would benefit from palliative care. If the primary care provider agrees, he/she would write a palliative care consult order for the patient. The goal is to reduce the time to palliative care for these patients, who may not have been identified as quickly without the algorithm.
