A life disrupted: Perspectives on Track 2 MAID from persons living with chronic illness

In 2021, Canada extended Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) to persons whose natural death is not reasonably foreseeable, referred to as Track 2 MAID. The purpose of this study was to develop a better understanding of best practices for Track 2 MAID from the perspectives of those living with an illness, disease, or disability that could potentially make them eligible for MAID.
