Use patient/parent-reported outcomes to learn about the health and well-being of these patients, including family involvement
Understand how patients may want to be involved in future research
Document willingness to be contracted for future research
Describe the association between patient/parent-reported outcomes and EHR-derived measures of patient health burden and healthcare utilization
