Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare patient priorities care (PPC) and usual care (UC) patients to identify differences in post-encounter medication changes, treatment burden (TBQ), and shared decision making in Older Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care (OPACIC), to understand PPC participant's sense-making and communication approaches related to deprescribing decisions in relation to the identified health priorities and to identify and categorize adverse drug withdrawal events (ADWEs)

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

PPC

Participants will have an encounter with a facilitator who will identify priorities (outcome goals and care preferences) from the dyads and transmits them in the electronic health records (EHR), and a follow-up encounter with their usual geriatric care provider to decide upon changes in their care that align with the identified priorities.

BEHAVIORAL

Usual care

Participants will have a geriatric clinic visit with a geriatrician that acts as their primary care provider (PCP) , in which the dyads will be encouraged by an unblinded study coordinator to ask about reducing medication burden.
