First seen Dec 18, 2025 · Last updated Jun 13, 2026 · Updated 34 times
Summary
This study tests whether sending a letter before a doctor's visit encourages older adults and people with serious illnesses to officially name a healthcare proxy—someone to make medical decisions if they can't. About 10,000 participants will be randomly assigned to receive different types of mailers or no mailer. The goal is to see which approach works best and why.
