Patient Navigation for Cancer Care

The working definition of patient navigation was provided by the NCI’s CRHCD in their request for applications. 13 In this definition, patient navigation refers to support and guidance offered to persons with abnormal cancer screening or a new cancer diagnosis in accessing the cancer care system, overcoming barriers, and facilitating timely, quality care provided in a culturally sensitive manner. Patient navigation is intended to target those who are most at risk for delays in care, including racial and ethnic minorities and those from low income populations. Furthermore, patient navigation targets specific time points in the cancer care continuum; we operationally define patient navigation as starting at the time of an abnormal screening result and ending at the determination that the screening test was a false positive or, for those individuals with a new cancer diagnosis, continuing through the completion of cancer treatment. The goal of patient navigation is to facilitate timely access to quality cancer care that meets cultural needs and standards of care for all patients.
Examples of navigation services include: arranging various forms of financial support, arranging for transportation to and childcare during scheduled appointments, identifying and scheduling appointments with culturally sensitive caregivers, coordinating care among providers, arranging for interpreter services, ensuring coordination of services among medical personnel, ensuring that medical records are available at each scheduled appointment, and providing other services to overcome access barriers encountered during the cancer care process including linkage to community resources. Navigators work to address health literacy and to train patients to advocate for themselves in the health care system. They are also trained to provide emotional support to patients during this stressful period. Navigators may also identify systems issues that serve as barriers to many patients, and work towards reduce the complexity to the patient of the multidisciplinary approach to care.
The concept of patient navigation is based upon the care management or case management model, which has four components.14 The first is case identification, which is a systematic approach to the identification of those individuals with abnormal cancer screening in need of follow-up care or incident cancers. The second is identifying individual barriers to receiving care. Navigators contact patients and elicit information about the barriers to completion of recommended care. The third is developing an individualized plan to address the barriers that are identified. The fourth is tracking, which is a systematic method of following each case through resolution of the problem. In the case of cancer navigation, this is to resolution of a diagnostic evaluation when a benign condition is diagnosed or follow-up to completion of primary therapy when a cancer or pre-malignant condition is diagnosed.
The navigator will focus on assisting patients and coordinating care of the patients among providers, community, and the patients and their families. Given that patient navigators are working primarily with racial/ethnic minority and low-income patients, cultural competence is a key feature. Cultural and linguistic competence is a set of congruent behaviors, attitudes, and policies that enable effective work in cross-cultural situations.15
PNRP sites vary in the prior training, skill sets, and educational background of navigators and include lay community peers, health educators and advocates, medical assistants, social workers, and nurses. The study has set a minimum requirement of a high school diploma or General Education Diploma. In an effort to achieve a core set of knowledge, skills, and competencies across navigators, a standardized training has been developed. The curriculum focuses on basic information about cancer and its diagnosis and treatment, professionalism, understanding barriers to care, communication skills, cultural competency, ethical conduct of human subjects research, and developing a local network of resources to support patients.16

Malaria Surveillance System in Uganda

UMSP in collaboration with the Uganda National Malaria Control Program (NMCP) established a health facility-based malaria surveillance system at six sentinel sites between September 2006 and January 2007 (Figure 1). All sentinel site facilities are government run level IV health centers that provide care free of charge, including diagnostic testing and medications. Level IV health centers generally have a catchment population of approximately 100,000 people and are staffed by one medical officer, two clinical officers, five nurses, five midwives, four nursing assistants, one dental officer, one lab technician, one lab assistant, one records officer, one health educator and one health assistant. Each site had previously been selected as part of the East African Network for Monitoring Antimalarial Treatment (EANMAT) to represent the diversity of geography and malaria transmission intensity in Uganda [9] (link).

Randomized Controlled Trial: HRA-O and Preventive Care

Data presented in this paper are from a randomised controlled study, the PRO-AGE study (London, U.K.; Hamburg, Germany; and Solothurn, Switzerland). In this study, non-disabled community-dwelling older persons were recruited from primary care and randomised to intervention and control groups [3 (link)]. After randomisation, all subjects allocated to the intervention group were sent the HRA-O questionnaire. This study examined the effects of the HRA-O linked with a site-specific reinforcement (i.e. supplemental counselling by a physician, health educator, or other health professional) on self reported health behaviour and use of preventative care. The ethical approval of the PRO-AGE project was from the Brent Medical Ethics Committee and King's College Hospital Research Ethics Committee (London), the Ethics Committee of the Ärztekammer Hamburg (Hamburg) and the Kantonale Ethikkommission Solothurn (EKO 0023) (Solothurn).

Multicomponent Lifestyle Intervention for Weight Loss and Hypertension

The intervention used theory-based^{32 (link)} and evidence-based^{33 (link),34 (link)} principles to promote weight loss and hypertension self-management for 24 months. The intervention is described in greater detail elsewhere.²⁹ Briefly, we used a behavioral weight loss approach designed for use in resource-constrained settings.²⁹ The intervention approach was designed for delivery in populations with limited literacy and numeracy and impaired access to health-promoting resources. Patients are prescribed 3 tailored goals to modify routine obesogenic lifestyle behaviors.^{29 ,33 (link)} Behavior change goals were modeled on evidence-based recommendations^{31 ,34 (link)} that were tailored to the patient population and phrased so that they could be easily self-monitored. New goals were selected at subsequent 13-week intervals. For the duration of the study, participants maintained a hypertension medication adherence goal (to take their medication as prescribed daily).
Participants chose to self-monitor their progress using either the study website or an interactive voice response system, available in English and Spanish. Both tracking systems provided real-time tailored feedback. Participants could switch their intervention platform at any time.
Trained community health educators delivered counseling calls monthly during the first 12 months of intervention and bimonthly during the second year (18 total scheduled calls). The community health educators were trained by study investigators in principles of motivational interviewing^{35 (link),36} and conducted 15- to 20-minute calls (in English or Spanish) that covered self-monitoring data, problem solving, and behavioral skills training. The community health educators also led 12 optional monthly group sessions that were held at a community location. The community health educators were trained and certified at baseline, were recertified annually, and received weekly supervision throughout the study.
Primary care providers delivered at least 1 brief, standardized message about the importance of intervention participation. We also provided a personalized behavior change “prescription” that included the primary care provider's electronic signature.^{37 (link)}Finally, we provided tailored behavioral skills training materials, adapted from previous studies.^{34 (link)} We also provided tailored information on community resources (eg, public parks, walking groups, and farmers' markets) and distributed a walking kit that included a pedometer and maps (with step counts) of destinations in the local community.

Twitter Analysis of Healthcare Providers' Antidepressant Discussions

The eligibility criteria used to assess the tweets included: 1. Containing at least one of the keywords that refers to an antidepressant(s) or the term ‘antidepressant’; 2. Written in English; 3. Posted between a 10-day period between 14th June 2022 and 23rd June 2022; 4. Containing original text; 5. Posted by a user who self-identified as a healthcare provider. Several preliminary searches determined a 10-day span would be feasible considering the scale of data and the capability of manual analysis. Posts on Twitter are generally categorised into tweets (including those that quoted another tweet), retweets and replies. For this study, only tweets and replies were included, since retweets are identical reposts and thus were considered duplicate content.
The inclusion/exclusion criteria were applied within Microsoft Excel, by authors manually reviewing the textual data. Microsoft Excel allowed screening and excluding data easily according to our criteria 1–4. For criterion 5, user profiles (names and bios) associated with the identified tweets were assessed for eligibility, whereby tweets posted by healthcare providers were eligible and categorised by their roles byYD. The definition of “healthcare providers” (Table 1) was adapted from the version defined by Lee et al. which was previously used to conduct a Twitter analysis of healthcare providers.⁴² (link) It was expanded in this study to”relevant healthcare professionals, providers and students”, who were considered people or organisations which the general public may expect to be more knowledgeable about healthcare, such as physicians (including psychiatrists), nurses, pharmacists, psychologists, researchers, medical students, and organisations in medical fields and other allied professionals (e.g, therapists, dietitians). Where there was ambiguity over someone's eligibility due to dubious expression over their role, a second researcher (NW) was consulted. If it was not certain that they were a healthcare provider, i.e., they did not use definitive terminology such as ‘pharmacist’ or ‘medic’, they were not included in the analysis. The content of the tweet text had not been considered in this stage to avoid bias.Table 1

Structural Competency in Health Research

Both authors are facilitators with the Structural Competency Working Group, a network of health care workers, patients, and social scientists who provide workshops and consultation on structural competency to health care workers and trainees, policy makers, and health professions faculty. These roles enhance our ability to interpret the data in relation to structural competency’s core concepts. It also may lead us to overly rely on structural competency as an analytic frame. Our distinct professional backgrounds and shared personal backgrounds also influenced our analysis. In the tradition of critical, post-structuralist ethnographers, we harnessed our social positions as data.²⁶ We are both middle-class white women with experience working in safety-net health care institutions. The first author is a former birth and abortion doula, social worker, and social welfare scholar, while the second author has given birth to two children, has worked as a health educator in the US health care safety net for five years, and is a medical sociologist.
The first author, as the researcher in the field, negotiated several relationships with participants and the research questions. Her identity as a white, middle-class social worker who moved to the region during a wave of gentrification perpetuated by similarly situated professionals may have influenced the way participants spoke about the economic and racial inequities they observe and experience. Her identities may have positioned her as an outsider. On the other hand, her health and social service-related training may have positioned her as an insider, facilitating access within Family Center.

Ethnographic Exploration of Social Determinants

The first author spent nine months (three days per week) conducting fieldwork at Family Center, primarily with the Health Team. Her activities included clerical work, escorting clients to appointments, and preparing tea and leading doula demonstrations for weekly prenatal education classes. She attended staff meetings and trainings weekly. She also attended activities outside of the agency, such as colloquia at the local teaching hospital where Family Center staff were invited to brainstorm strategies to address health inequities. Early on in participant observation, she noted that while text on the city’s Department of Public Health website and presentations used the SDH framework to describe Family Center’s work, no frontline workers ever used the framework to describe their work. In the case of the Department of Public Health, the Dahlgren and Whitehead model was cited to describe Family Center. Manuscripts in development from this ethnography report more specifically on findings from participant observation.
Participant observation assisted the researcher in identifying relevant participants for semi-structured interviews, specifically those who worked most closely with clients on health and health care needs. There were 21 interviewees in total, including social work case managers, health counselors, health educators, community health workers, and a member of Family Center’s executive team who supervised all frontline workers. All quotations are from semi-structured interviews. Throughout informal interviews during participant observation, all participants endorsed the relevance of social determinants in creating health and health care inequities, which motivated the interview protocol development. A purposive sampling approach was utilized. Interviews were conducted in person at a mutually agreed-on location within Family Center and averaged 67 minutes in length. Participants received a US$25 gift card. The semi-structured interview guide probed for daily routines and practices concerning client care, collaboration practices, and explanations for health inequities (e.g., “What makes it hard for some clients to be healthy?”). Perspectives on the SDH framework were elicited at the close of interviews, when participants were shown an image of Dahlgren and Whitehead’s model and asked to describe it. This model was chosen because the Department of Public Health uses it to describe Family Center’s work, because it is widely cited in public health literature generally, and because it balances breadth and depth with visual clarity.

Developing a Comprehensive Health Literacy Intervention

As part of the formative evaluation [34 (link)], all class nine students, as well as their Health and Physical Education (HPE) teachers and school nurses from the four schools will take part in quantitative and qualitative pre-tests. This phase will assess participants’ HL knowledge, and, needs. This phase [44 (link)] will also inform the implementation strategies [34 (link), 45 ].
The HL Intervention will be developed in three steps. First, the researchers will prepare a preliminary draft of the intervention based on the IM’s four dimensions (accessing, understanding, appraising, and applying health information [40 (link)]), and the HPE curriculum of class nine. Second, the preliminary draft will be refined based on the HL needs of the target group. This will then be further refined by the Delphi study with HPE teachers, school nurse, health education, public health and medical care experts. As part of this process, the 9th -grade HPE curriculum will be integrated into the interventions’ contents, strategies, materials, and practical facilitation of the sessions. Third, to make it more aligned with HL needs, the curriculum, and the HL domains (accessing, understanding, evaluating, and applying), the refined draft will be finalized based on consultation with health educators and health literacy experts (see Fig. 3).

Classification and Analysis of Heart Failure Management Programs

We will first classify all the arms of all studies according to the definition of HF-MP types and the intervention details collected from all studies. We plan to divide the HF-MP intervention into five categories based on the intensities of content, the frequencies of encounters, and the primary care provider, as follows: high-intensity hybrid disease management (high-HDM), low-intensity hybrid disease management (low-HDM), high-intensity self-care support (high-SCS), low-intensity self-care support (low-SCS), and self-monitoring (SM). Details of the definitions of these HF-MP programs are provided in Table 1.Table 1

Interventions models (five HF-MP types) and comparator groups, with descriptions

Intervention model
Nickname	Type	Professional involvement degree	Frequency	Encounter type	Delivery personnel	Main content
High-HDM	Hybrid disease management	High	≥ 1/month or ≥ 6 h over the study period	Face-to-face and/or telephone	Healthcare professional team led by HF cardiologist and/or HF nurse, and pharmacy	Review patient status and data; medication reconciliation; facilitating access to care
High-SCS	Self-care support	Moderate	≥ 1/month or ≥ 6 h over the study period	Face-to-face and/or telephone	Healthcare team coordinated by nurse, physician, psychologist, health educator, or trained volunteer	Review patient status, provide Education program and self-care support
Low-HDM	Hybrid disease management	Moderate	< 1/month	Face-to-face and/or telephone	Healthcare professional team led by HF cardiologist and/or HF nurse, and pharmacy	Review patient status and data; medication reconciliation; facilitating access to care
Low-SCS	Self-care support	Low	< 1/month	Face-to-face and/or telephone	Healthcare team coordinated by nurse, physician, psychologist, health educator, or trained volunteer	Review patient status, provide Education program and self-care support
SM	Self-monitoring		No scheduled encounters; real time self-monitoring	Telemonitoring	Self-management	No scheduled interactions with healthcare professionals
Comparator group
EUC	Consisted of the patients being given care guided by local practice that may or may not have included scheduled follow-up visits but did not include any structured educational programs
UC	The necessary support was provided at the discretion of clinicians that may or may not have included scheduled follow-up visits but did not include any structured educational programs

In brief, high-intensity programs were defined as those in which encounters with the patients occurred more than once per month or more than 6 h over the study period. Low intensity was defined as patient encounters occurring less than once per month during the intervention period. Hybrid disease management programs were led by health care professionals (including HF specialists, HF nurses, or pharmacists), including review of patients’ clinic status, medication reconciliation, patient education, and facilitated access to care and/or social and psychological support. Self-care support was primarily delivered by an allied healthcare professional team that included physicians, nurses or psychologists, health educators, and/or trained volunteers who provide support and educational programs to enhance patients’ self-care skills and address potential barriers to self-care. Self-monitoring programs were based on telemonitoring.
To remove the bias caused by the different strength of “usual care” groups in different studies, comparator groups will be characterized as either “usual care” (UC) or “enhanced usual care” (EUC). “Usual care” was defined as care provided at the discretion of clinicians and may or may not have included scheduled follow-up visits but did not include any structured educational programs. “Enhanced usual care” was defined as patients being given a formal plan with scheduled follow-up visits and/or being given structured educational material only before they were discharged from the hospital (i.e., no structured educational program following discharge). We will also present the results of not performing this operation as a sensitivity analysis.
