Descripción detallada
Social determinants of health (SDOH) play a central role in drop-offs at each step of the cancer care cascade for patients living in poverty. Social barriers have been shown to result in delays in care, increased non-compliance, and poorer outcomes. Importantly, negative SDOH among patients with HCC may impact receipt of therapy, a critical contributor to improved survival. Studies have shown that even small delays in therapy (more than 3 months from diagnosis) can lead to worse survival. The treatment landscape for HCC is complex, ranging from surgical options to locoregional therapies to immunotherapy, and requires multidisciplinary input from hepatologists, oncologists, interventional radiologists, and surgeons and frequent touchpoints with the healthcare system to successfully complete treatment. Social barriers can make navigating these complexities especially challenging for resource-poor patients with HCC.
The investigators hypothesize that intervening upon key social determinants of health along with patient navigation will lead to improvements in adherence to care and timely receipt of guideline-concordant treatment among underserved patients with HCC. Specifically, the study targets three modifiable and inter-related social barriers - unreliable transportation, housing instability, and food insecurity - that have previously been shown to be prevalent among patients with cirrhosis.

|---|---|
|
Experimental: SDOH and patient navigation program
Transportation support through Lyft rideshares, housing support through Hyatt House LA - University Medical Center, and meal support through Project Angel Food LA
|
Social resources to be offered under our SDOH program will include 1) rideshares to treatment-related visits, 2) hotel stays for treatment-related visits, and/or 3) a 12-week meal delivery program.
Usual clinic-provided patient navigation to appointments, scheduling, social resources, financial challenges, etc.
|
|
Comparador activo: Patient navigation only
For the duration of the intervention, patients will have access to patient navigation as per usual care.
The intensity and frequency of navigation is dependent on the treating clinic; the provider of navigation (whether nurse vs social worker) is also variable by clinic.
This includes: coordination of care including assistance with scheduling follow-up visits, labs, imaging, and procedures, help with filling out forms for insurance, FMLA or disability benefits, facilitating communication with treating providers, referral to community and patient support groups, providing patients with educational materials and resources, check-ins on well-being and any cancer- or treatment-related concerns
