  • a Included in denominator if participants had provided any response (yes/no) to the question.

  • b For KIS-ACP quality, post hoc clinical review changed the grading of KIS-ACP assessments (n = 4) after the quantitative analysis report had been issued. ACP = advance (anticipatory) care planning. KIS = key information summary. KIS-ACP = key information summary — advance (anticipatory) care plan. N/A = not applicable.
