But the thing that really motivates me is seeing, you know, and trying to manage later stage, you know, we can call them complications of people who haven’t had a diagnosis are now really in, you know, a world of complexity around other conditions, around managing life and managing practical things. Yeah, Medicaid program.

Alex: And we are also delighted to welcome Areej El-Jawahri, who is an oncologist at Massachusetts General Hospital as well, who specializes in blood cancers. So I really opted to specialize in lung cancer because I thought that was the appropriate population to build a supportive and palliative care research agenda. Jennifer: Thanks.

So I make the point, they often say, “Oh, you have this special population,” like pediatrics, where it’s 10% or something. So pretty soon, I hope, we’ll be able to do this all electronically by anyone who wants to. Or electronically, to fill out, right? Do you worry about that? This is terrific.

We talk with Kate about how despite how far we’ve come in palliative care research, we still don’t have answers to some fundamental questions, such as: Who should get specialized palliative care? But there’s no real system and systematic electronic way to identify need-based palliative care right now. By diagnosis? Alex: Yeah.

Alex 15:13 This is really complicated. They have a special skill, and when they see someone who needs it, they need to use it. That makes it really special for them and for me. And in fact, after a complicated ethics issue, we will oftentimes go in and try and debrief them. This shouldn’t have happened. And I was.
