Feasibility of patient navigation for care planning in primary care.
The purpose of this study was to help better control chronic conditions by connecting patients with a navigator for support creating a personal care goal. Twenty-four clinicians in 12 practices in the Virginia Ambulatory Care Outcomes Research Network (ACORN) participated in a care planning intervention under a structured process that guided 87 patients with uncontrolled chronic conditions, trained navigators, and adapted the navigation process to meet the needs of each practice. Findings indicated that patient navigation to address care plans should be feasible, with a minimal time commitment and non-intensive training. However, given the burden and competing demands in primary care, this help cannot be offered without additional resources.
