A research team at Lund University in Sweden has studied how patients with advanced cancer seek care during the final stages of their lives. By studying their care patterns, the research team has developed a measurement method that relates healthcare needs to the changing value of time for patients at the end of life. The less time they have left to live, the more precious time feels. Every year,
