Conclusions:
- Patient communication is influenced by various factors, necessitating a comprehensive approach to patient-centered care.
- HCPs should address patients' psychosocial needs and tailor strategies to individual requirements.
- Future research should employ complex models to elucidate patient-provider communication dynamics.
