This study, called ACCESS-Leukemia, is looking at how screening for health-related social needs and early social work help might benefit adults with acute leukemia or a type of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). These social needs, like financial hardship or housing issues, can impact health. Researchers want to see if this intervention, which includes a survey about your social needs and a social work consultation, is practical and helpful. They will compare this approach to standard care. The study aims to understand if this early support can improve outcomes for patients. You may be able to join if you are an adult (18 or older) newly referred to an outpatient adult leukemia treatment program with certain diagnoses of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), or intermediate/high-risk MDS.
