Implementation of a Web-Based Program for Advance Care Planning and Evaluation of its Complexity With the Nonadoption, Abandonment, Scale-Up, Spread, And Sustainability (NASSS) Framework: Qualitative Evaluation Study
Relatively few complexities were identified considering the implementation of the web-based ACP program "Explore Your Preferences for Treatment and Care." The program is evidence-based, freestanding, and well-maintained, with straightforward, well-understood technology. The program is expected to generate a positive value for different stakeholders. Complexities include the broad target population of the program and sociocultural factors. People with limited digital literacy may need support to use the program. Its uptake might be improved by increasing awareness of ACP and the program among a wider population of potential users and among health care professionals. Addressing these issues may guide future use and sustainability of the program.
