Summary

This study tested a new approach called Patient Priorities Care in 420 older veterans with multiple chronic conditions. Instead of following standard care, doctors worked with patients to identify their personal health goals and tailor treatments accordingly. The goal was to see if this reduces the burden of treatments and helps patients get services that support independence at home.
