The purpose of this project is to identify and target barriers faced by rural endometrial cancer patients in order to develop a patient navigation intervention. Rural residents with endometrial cancer, the the most prevalent gynecologic cancer in the US, have higher odds of mortality than urban endometrial cancer patients. As the number of new endometrial cancer cases is expected to increase 50% by 2030, this urban-rural disparity is expected to continue widening.
