Pharmacist-Led SDoH Screening Intervention During Transitions of Care in an Acute Care Setting

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The study is a quasi-experimental pilot study conducted at Buffalo General Medical Center (BGMC). It aims to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of a pharmacist-led intervention addressing health-related social needs (HRSN) during transitions of care in the emergency department. The intervention involves: 1) pharmacist led medication review, 2) screening patients using the Accountable Health Communities (AHC) HRSN tool, connecting them to local community-based organizations, and 3) conducting follow-up to assess outcomes. The study will recruit 150 patients (50 intervention and 100 control) and assess healthcare utilization metrics, including hospital readmissions and emergency department visits.
