Welcome to Health Care Planning

Comprehensive health care planning, also known as Advance Care Planning (ACP) is a valuable service that offers an additional layer of support to patients, families and care teams dealing with serious illness. Our program focuses on creating personalized advance directive documents through guided conversations that fully reflect each patient's unique goals, preferences, and future care preferences. This service accommodates both individuals new to advance care planning and those looking to modify their existing plans.

Our approach to healthcare planning is designed to prioritize the unique needs and goals of each patient. We work collaboratively with individuals and their care teams to ensure that the process is efficient, timely, and customized to their unique requirements. Throughout the planning journey, we provide regular updates to keep individuals and clinicians informed as we guide them towards making informed decisions about their future care. Our approach can lead to improved outcomes and enhanced quality of life.

Health Care Is:

The Iris Standard

Our deep experience in health care planning allow us to provide meaningful and beneficial guidance to individuals through the full lifecycle.  This creates a supportive, guided process for individuals while also reducing the time-intensive, complex burden of goals of care discussions for clinicians. We provide a high level of care and compassion, treating individuals as if they were our own family by putting them first.

Our Health Care Planning Experts

Our specially trained and licensed health care planning experts provide phone or video consultations to support highly individualized health care planning using a technology enabled process to document patient wishes. They help patients communicate their goals of care and capture those in individualized advance directive documents which are shared with care teams and family members. They also address symptoms and other medical care needs, social determinants of health, and the needs of caregivers.
