简要总结
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.

研究组 & 干预措施
Upfront Educational Intervention
Participants will receive a video-based intervention after completing baseline survey instruments and prior to retesting after 4-6 months.
干预措施: Table-based Educational Intervention (Other)
Delayed Educational Intervention
Participants will complete baseline survey instruments and again complete surveys after 4-6 months. They will then receive the video-based educational tablet.
干预措施: Table-based Educational Intervention (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Care Coordination Instrument Score
时间窗: Baseline and 4 months
Participants complete the Care Coordination Instrument (CCI), a 29-item questionnaire. Each item is rated on a Likert scale (Strongly Agree = 3 to Strongly Disagree = 0). A total score is generated by summing the item scores; possible total scores range from 0-87. Higher scores represent a greater perception of care coordination.
次要结局
- Self-Advocacy Score(Baseline and 4 months)
- Cancer Knowledge(Baseline and 4 months)
- Satisfaction with Educational Videos(4 months)
