aceArtificial Intelligence in Advance Care Planning for Older Adults in the United States: A Scoping Review
Purpose To explore how artificial intelligence (AI) tools support advance care planning (ACP) for older adults by enabling opportunities for timely ACP conversations and improving visibility and retrievability of ACP documentation. Method Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines, we searched PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science for peer-reviewed studies published between January 2018 and August 2025, applying inclusion criteria focuse…
Across the ten studies reviewed, AI tools were associated with increased advance care planning documentation and higher rates of goals of care discussions for older adults.
The authors say AI only 'may' improve ACP timing and documentation, and note equitable, transparent implementation remains essential, so the evidence is tentative and based on just ten included studies.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2279 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
