Community Services Navigation for Breast Cancer Screening
This study is looking at whether connecting people with community services can help improve follow-up after an abnormal mammogram. Researchers want to see if directly referring patients to the United Way of Salt Lake's 211 service (Community Service Navigation) works better than standard referrals (Usual Care) to help address social needs that might make it harder to get follow-up care. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, speak English or Spanish, have had an abnormal mammogram result, and report at least one social need. The study aims to see if this approach can help reduce differences in breast cancer outcomes for underserved women. The study plans to enroll 1450 participants.

What this trial measures
- Change in Social Needsup to 18 months after baseline assessment
Change in participants' level of social needs as measured by the B-SINCERE (Breast-Screener for Intensifying Community Referrals for Health) screener. To Test whether the use of a community services navigation intervention in conjunction with social service referrals decreases social needs compared to the referrals alone (usual care). B-SINCERE, reported on a 0-10 point scale, with 0=No Social Needs present, and 1-10=Social Needs present, anything greater than 0 indicates social needs and eligibility for the study.
- Episode Completion (EC).up to 18 months after baseline assessment
EC is the name of a dichotomous scale, reported on a 2-point scale that is calculated from patient electronic health record (EHR), with 0=No Breast Cancer Screening completed, 1=Breast Cancer Screening completed. Impact of the community services navigation intervention on breast cancer screening episode completion and preventive care utilization among women with self-reported social needs. Preventive Care Utilization is a descriptive measure that is not reporting a score on a scale.
