Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study identifies patient-important outcome measures and develops a survey that assesses the impact of nutritional interventions among cancer patients. Currently, data on the impact of medically tailored meals on outcomes that are meaningful to patients, providers, and payers are limited. For this reason, access to medically tailored meals as a covered benefit for cancer patients is limited. Thus, there is a need to explore the efficacy of nutritional interventions among this population. This study identifies outcome measures for nutritional interventions that are meaningful to patients and providers.
