Navigating to surgery: a new study aims to close the gap in parathyroid care

This study looks at whether patient navigation—a service that helps people schedule and attend appointments—can increase the number of patients with primary hyperparathyroidism who receive surgery. The study will enroll 76 people from historically marginalized groups and track how many complete surgical consultations and surgeries, and how quickly. The goal is to improve access to care and reduce health disparities.
