Hearing Healthcare Assessment in Rural Communities

This study is testing a Patient Navigation Program for Hearing Health Care to help adults in rural Kentucky get diagnostic hearing tests. It aims to see if this program can increase the number of people receiving a diagnostic audiogram (a test to measure hearing) within 12 months of joining the study. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, can speak and read English, and are a patient at a participating primary care clinic. The study plans to enroll 500 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study, meaning participants will receive a specific intervention. It plans to enroll 500 participants from 10 rural clinics.
What's involved
If you join, you will undergo a baseline assessment. The study will then track whether you receive a diagnostic audiogram within 12 months.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed from enrollment to study completion at 12 months to see if they receive a diagnostic audiogram.
