A nationwide survey was conducted to examine differences between clinical and non-clinical oncology navigators in their service provision, engagement in the cancer care continuum, personal characteristics, and program characteristics. Using convenience sampling, 527 oncology navigators participated and completed an online survey. Descriptive statistics, chi-square statistics, and t tests were used to compare non-clinical (e.g., community health worker) and clinical (e.g., nurse navigators) navigators on the provision of various navigation services, personal characteristics, engagement in the cancer care continuum, and program characteristics. Most participants were clinical navigators (76.1%). Compared to non-clinical navigators, clinical navigators were more likely to have a bachelor’s degree or higher (88.6% versus 69.6%, p<.001), be funded by operational budgets (84.4% versus 35.7%, p<.001), and less likely to work at a community-based organization or non-profit (2.0% versus 36.5%, p<.001). Clinical navigators were more likely to perform basic navigation (p<.001), care coordination (p<.001), treatment support (p<.001), and clinical trial/peer support (p =.005). Clinical navigators were more likely to engage in treatment (p<.001), end of life (p<.001), and palliative care (p =.001) navigation. There is growing indication that clinical and non-clinical oncology navigators perform different functions and work in different settings. Non-clinical navigators may be more likely to face job insecurity, as they are mostly funded by grants and work in non-profit organizations.
