Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Group 2: Patient Navigation 2.0 ChecklistExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The PN 2.0 Checklist intervention is centered on a learning health system checklist that enumerates a patient's Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) related barriers and tracks completion of services to address SDoH (at community oncology and community social service settings) as well as completion of USPSTF recommended cancer-related screenings, behavioral counseling, and immunizations.
Group II: Group 1: One-on-One Patient NavigationActive Control1 Intervention
One-on-one Patient Navigation will be based on a Case Management Model where patients navigators perform appointment scheduling and reminders; facilitate communication between patients and care teams; and identify and reduce patient barriers through education, outreach, and referrals to community, local, and state resources.
