And we have Kate Courtright, who’s at University of Pennsylvania, the PAIR Center. What we did was ask clinicians earlier in the ICU stay for very sick patients to document prognosis, and for those who they thought would survive, to document six-month functional prognosis.

The hospital refused without a court order, and the case eventually made its way to the Supreme Court.
