A symposium synopsis *Money Matters: Co-Creating Financial Interventions with Patients, Families, Clinicians, and Communities to Increase Reach Submission Type Symposia Topic Research Submitter Bridgette Thom Affiliation University of North Carolina At Chapel Hill Participant(s) Donald Rosenstein (Co-Chair), Bridgette Thom (Chair), Lauren Ghazal (Speaker), John Salsman (Speaker), Echo Warner (Speaker), Austin Waters (Speaker), Stephanie Wheeler (Speaker), Fumiko Chino (Discussant) SUBMISSION DETAILS Primary Category Social/Practical Problems (resources, financial, insurance, support) Abstract Population Pediatric/AYA, Adult, Geriatric/Aging Adults, Across a Lifespan, Minority and Underserved Overall Symposia Description Cancer-related financial toxicity (FT) can yield negative psychosocial, material, and behavioral impacts on patients and their caregivers. Previous research has produced a robust body of evidence on FT risk factors and consequences. More recently, work has shifted toward prevention and mitigation of FT. Efforts to reduce FT must be informed by the voices of those most impacted-patients and caregivers-and incorporate the perspectives of those clinicians tasked with intervention delivery. In this symposium, we will describe five research studies designed to co-create FT interventions with patients, families, clinicians, and communities.
What does it mean to co-design cancer care 💰🏥 interventions? Who should be involved and how does it work?
