Improving Health Insurance Literacy Among Young Adult Cancer Survivors
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cancer
In brief
We will conduct a randomized controlled trial to test a 4-session virtual health insurance navigation intervention that will increase knowledge about health insurance, reduce financial burden, and improve surveillance for recurrence among 300 young adult cancer survivors ages 26 to 39. We will combine self-reported survey data with electronic health records and claims data to examine the trial outcomes and efficacy. We will also conduct an economic evaluation using cost-effectiveness and budget impact analyses, to establish the sustainability of the intervention at improving outcomes of young adult survivors through increasing their health insurance knowledge and decreasing their financial burden.
