1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract

objectiveTo develop an educational intervention to empower patients to manage their financial health better. PARTICIPANTS AND

methodsThis study was conducted from September 1, 2017, to January 31, 2019. Focus groups were held with social workers, case managers, and patient financial service staff and interviews were conducted with patients and caregivers to inform the content, delivery format, and timing of an intervention for mitigating financial hardship from treatment (phase 1). Based on qualitative data, theories of adult learning, and a review of the literature, we created an educational presentation to be delivered in a classroom setting. Two patient focus groups were then held for feedback on the presentation (phase 2).

resultsIn phase 1, both patients and allied health care staff providers believed that an educational intervention about financial aspects of care early during treatment would help them cope and plan better. Participants' suggestions for the intervention's content included billing information, insurance, authorization processes, employment policies related to health care and disability benefits, and alternative financial resources. Based on these suggestions, a preliminary educational presentation was developed with 3 main themes: insurance issues, employment issues, and financial health. Phase 2 focus group participants suggested refinement of the presentation, including targeting specific groups, adding graphics, and more information about resources.

conclusionOur study provides the basis for a patient-centered education module for emotional, instrumental, and informational support for financial distress for use in a clinical setting.
