Patient Care Outreach, Navigation, Technology and Support 2.0 for Breast Cancer and Cardiovascular Diseases

This study, called Patient COUNTS 2.0, is testing a virtual patient navigation program for people with breast cancer or cardiovascular disease who may have limited access to care. The program, called Patient Care Outreach, Navigation, Technology and Support (COUNTS), uses an online tool to help you navigate your healthcare journey. Researchers want to see how easy and helpful this virtual tool is for people who speak English, Mandarin/Cantonese, or Spanish. The goal is to make sure more people can get support and guidance for their health, even if they can't always meet in person. The study will measure how satisfied participants are with the program, how many people use it, and how often they use it, all within six months. This study is currently recruiting about 260 participants.
