Investigators also observed a sustainable long-term impact on emergency department use and hospitalizations, as well as a significant improvement in overall survival.

Stanford Scores Big Wins for Equitable HealthcareOver the past decade, Patel’s team has been studying whether community health workers can improve quality of care for cancer patients in the community — namely, at the end of life — across the United States, with projects in Los Angeles County, Atlantic City, Chicago, Phoenix, New York, and Boston. These studies have shown how effective community health workers have been in improving care, but Patel was shocked by the magnitude of how helpful they were. Community health workers in these prior interventions only spent six months working with each patient. Patel says that patients continued to see improvements in their care 10 years after they’d been paired with the community health worker.
