Trial Identification

Brief Title: Improving Cancer Patients' Insurance Choices

Official Title: Supporting Cancer Survivors' Health Insurance Marketplace Decisions

Study ID: NCT03592433

Interventions

I Can PIC

Study Description

Brief Summary: The goal of this research study is to find out if a decision aid (DA) created by investigators, I Can PIC, is effective in helping cancer patients make decisions about their health insurance. The investigators will evaluate I Can PIC compared to an attention control condition (existing website created by the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network). The study hypothesis is that those randomly assigned to I Can PIC will have higher knowledge about health insurance terms and details, more certainty about the best health insurance plan for them, and more confidence in their health insurance decisions compared to those randomly assigned to the control condition.

Detailed Description: In a prior study, the investigators created a consumer-friendly online tool, Show Me Health Plans (SMHP), for those enrolling in health insurance in the ACA marketplace. I Can PIC was developed based on SMHP, with input from an advisory board, and incorporating feedback from semi-structured qualitative interviews with cancer survivors. The investigators created I Can PIC to focus on unique needs of cancer patients and survivors considering health insurance. In this study, the investigators will examine the effectiveness of I Can PIC by conducting a randomized experiment with 275 participants. The trial will compare the I Can PIC to an attention control website developed by the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network. Primary outcomes include knowledge, decision self-efficacy, certainty about plan choice, and the match between plan choice and preferences. The investigators will also explore whether financial toxicity, cancer type, and time since diagnosis relate to outcomes.
