Summary
This study tests a patient navigator program for 28 underserved people struggling with infertility. The navigator helps with insurance, appointments, and tests to speed up care. Researchers compare their progress to similar patients from the year before. The goal is to see if this support reduces wait times and improves access to fertility treatment.
