Good content but the 2025 edition has been updated with newer material. Still valuable if you want a second perspective on the HPM blueprint.
Maria G. –
Comprehensive exam preparation content. The ethical and legal considerations were thorough. File size is large at 18.1 GB but the quality justifies it.
Rachel S. –
The spiritual care and ethics sections stood out as especially well prepared. Would recommend pairing with the 2025 edition for complete coverage.

The MD Anderson faculty bring real clinical depth to every lecture. The communication techniques module was immediately useful in my practice.

Passed the HPM exam using these lectures. The delirium and opioid-induced neurotoxicity sessions were particularly high yield for the boards.

Excellent resource for palliative care board prep. The disease-specific modules and the psychosocial support lectures give comprehensive coverage.
