To establish a conceptual framework that maps the direct and indirect causal mechanisms connecting health literacy to patient health outcomes.
Synthesized current empirical literature on health literacy, health behaviors, and patient navigation across healthcare environments.
Developed a structural conceptual model organizing established intermediate pathways and knowledge gaps.
Demonstrated how health literacy indirectly drives clinical outcomes through intermediary factors such as health knowledge, self-efficacy, and navigation of healthcare systems.
Identified critical gaps in existing evidence to establish prioritized focal points for future research and targeted clinical interventions.

Paasche‐Orlow et al. (2007) studied this question.
