Description:
Creating a Lasting Impression on the Patient Experience
Whether an individual faces a possible cancer diagnosis, or has been diagnosed with cancer, it is very stressful. Beyond questions and concerns about the disease, questions may arise such as “what do I do next?” “How am I going to get to my appointment?” and “how am I going to pay for this?” The good news is NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Patient Navigators have answers to these questions, and provide solutions and guidance to our patients during their cancer care experience in collaboration with New York State’s Cancer Services Program that provides no cost breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screenings and diagnostic services at no cost to eligible individuals.

Responsibilities include determining eligibility and enrolling patients as necessary, coordinating appointments, providing logistical support, facilitating the collection of medical records, insurance and financial information while acting as a liaison between the patient and the medical team. In addition, the Patient Navigator helps to identify barriers that may be preventing patients from receiving timely and high-quality healthcare treatment and working to find solutions to those barriers as well as participate/coordinate in outreach events and education sessions to ensure the local population of Brooklyn has the resources they need to apply for the Cancer Services Program.

Persons in this function conduct outreach activities throughout the service region to reach CSP-eligible individuals and identified populations of focus and recruit CSP-eligible individuals in need of breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening, referring them for enrollment in the CSP.
