The family meeting is the procedure
Who was in the room, what was understood, and what was decided have to be in the note. ‘GOC discussed’ does not help the night team or the hospice nurse.

Palliative Care
An AI medical scribe built for palliative care
Goals of care, ESAS-style symptom burden, and hospice transitions — ACP, IDT plans, and actively-dying notes drafted from the family meeting, not reconstructed after sign-out.
The problem
What slows palliative care down
IDT plans are interdisciplinary by definition
Chaplain, social work, and nursing goals cannot be a copied MD SOAP. The IDT note has to name disciplines.
Hospice referral is a medical-necessity document
Trajectory, PPS/KPS, and why hospice now have to be explicit or the GIP vs routine-home decision looks arbitrary.
