Summary

This study tests a three-session digital program called Making Cents of Medical Costs (MCMC) designed to help young adult cancer survivors understand their medical bills, health insurance, and finances. The trial enrolls 30 survivors aged 18-39 who have finished active cancer treatment. The goal is to see if the program is acceptable, appropriate, accessible, and practical for this group.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
A three-session digital program called Making Cents of Medical Costs (MCMC) that teaches skills for managing medical bills, insurance, and finances.
What this could lead to
If it works, this program could offer a practical way to help young cancer survivors reduce financial stress and better manage the costs of their care.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study focused on whether the program is usable and acceptable, not on whether it actually reduces financial hardship. Results may not apply to all survivors.
