Table 3. Depression and Anxiety Scores by Cancer and Non-Cancer and by Study Arm (PREPARE versus AD-only).

Depression was measured using the validated Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-8 (range 0-24) and anxiety was measured with the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)-7 (range 0-21). PREPARE = Prepare for Your Care; AD = advance directive.

	Cancer (n=220)			Non-Cancer (n=766)
	AD-only	PREPARE	P-value	AD-only	PREPARE	P-value
Depression Score, mean^a (95% CI)	4.8 (4.1-5.6)	4.0 (3.1-4.8)	0.16	4.1 (3.7-4.5)	4.2 (3.8-4.7)	0.72
