Summary

The investigator will conduct a two-site, randomized, controlled study of the HoPE (Hospice Preparation and Education) web-based tool versus usual care to assess: Technology usability (primary), study feasibility (secondary), user acceptability (secondary), and hospice service conversion rate (exploratory). Technology usability will be assessed through a one-time quantitative survey using established instruments. Study feasibility and user accessibility will be assessed through trial enrollment and retention alongside analytics assessing tool usage (e.g. time spent on each page of the website). Conversion rate is the percent of patients introduced to hospice who eventually enroll. The investigators will evaluate in an exploratory manner the differential effect of HoPE versus usual care.
