✓ Unanimous Initial: mixed Requery: mixed — The study includes patients who are initially hospitalized (inpatient) for their lung cancer diagnosis, then transitions to outpatient care with 90-day follow-up monitoring after hospital discharge. Thinking: outpatient — The intervention (PRO symptom monitoring, navigation, and palliative care) is delivered for 90 days AFTER hospital discharge via web/telephone, making this an outpatient study despite initial hospital diagnosis.

✓ Unanimous Initial: outpatient Requery: outpatient — The intervention involves web- or telephone-based PRO symptom monitoring after hospital discharge, indicating outpatient status during the intervention phase. Thinking: outpatient — Intervention consists of post-discharge web/telephone symptom monitoring and supportive outpatient care, so patients are not admitted during the study treatment phase.

✗ No consensus Initial: yes Requery: no — This is an observational study testing a risk stratification system and patient-reported outcome monitoring, where palliative care referral is just one component being measured as an outcome rather than the primary intervention being tested. Thinking: no — This observational study tests a risk stratification system for lung cancer patients where palliative care is one of several supportive services recommended for high-risk patients, not the intervention being evaluated.

✗ No consensus Initial: no Requery: yes — The trial involves recommending palliative care as part of supportive care interventions for the high-risk group, making palliative care the intervention being tested. Thinking: yes — The study’s intervention involves a triggered supportive-care pathway that specifically recommends and measures receipt of palliative care consultation for high-risk patients.
