Care Coordination Educational Intervention Study for Patients From Rural Areas With Early Stage Cancer

Care Coordination is an essential component of cancer care delivery. Many patients experience poor care coordination. In this study, we hypothesize that provision of a video educational intervention to teach patients about cancer, care coordination and self-advocacy will improve patients' perception of care coordination. Cancer patients with early stage disease scheduled to receive adjuvant therapy, and who reside in a rural area, will be enrolled onto the study. Patients will be randomized to receive a table-based educational intervention tool initially (arm1) or after 4 months of therapy (arm2). Assessment of cancer knowledge, self-advocacy and care coordination will be obtained at baseline and after 4-6 months.
