Adding Advanced Care Planning / MOST Forms to EdEHR

One of the joys of building an education-focused EHR is exploring how to represent critical, nuanced workflows—like Medical Orders for Scope of Treatment (MOST)—in a way that supports teaching objectives. We are expanding EdEHR with dedicated components for advanced care planning so your learners can work with real-world documentation while honoring regional practices.

MOST defines six levels of intervention, each clarifying how far a care team should go in life-saving efforts. In British Columbia, the form formalizes a patient’s wishes across the spectrum of resuscitation, hospitalization, and comfort measures.

Supporting multiple frameworks

While MOST is our starting point, we are designing the module to adapt to other directives such as:

• POLST (Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment) used across the United States
• MOLST (Medical Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment) implemented in several states

We are asking a series of design questions as we build:

• What information is essential for educational outcomes?
• Where in the chart should these orders live so learners can find them quickly?
• How can we craft a form that works across regions while still being authentic?
• Should the form primarily seed the scenario, or will learners complete it as part of their documentation?

If you are interested in shaping how advanced care planning appears inside EdEHR—or if you have forms your program relies on—please reach out. We would love to collaborate.
