Patient navigation programming is highly effective in facilitating equitable access to cancer care, reducing financial toxicity, and improving health and quality of life outcomes for cancer patients. However, resource limitations impact the ability of health systems and their partners to scale patient navigation programs to meet comprehensive care needs.
Health systems and their partners can leverage digital solutions to address capacity and efficiency issues in cancer patient navigation. Still, they must first build a business case for investment and a strategy for implementation.
The CancerX Digital Navigation ROI Calculator and CancerX Patient Navigation Blueprint directly support scaled, sustainable navigation to improve access, cost, and health outcomes for more cancer patients. These free resources are designed to support health systems and patient navigators in developing a business case and strategy for digital patient navigation programming.
