What this trial studies

This observational study evaluates whether the Making Cents of Medical Costs (MCMC) program is acceptable, appropriate, accessible, and feasible for young adult cancer survivors. It includes English-speaking individuals aged 18 to 39 who completed active cancer treatment and have internet access. Participants will engage with the digital program to learn about costs and resources related to their healthcare. The study is led by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, with no listed collaborators, and focuses on feasibility and user experience rather than clinical outcomes. No information is provided about the detailed methodology or endpoints beyond feasibility and acceptability.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the program could help young adult survivors better understand and manage medical costs after cancer treatment.

How similar studies have gone: Prior work in digital cost-navigation tools has shown promise in improving understanding of medical expenses among cancer patients, though this exact program for young adults is novel in this setting.
