Selected Recommendations from the President’sSelected Recommendations from the President s Cancer Panel & IOM Reports
• When treatment ends, all survivors should ,receive a summary record that includes important disease characteristics and treatments received.
• In addition, they should be provided with a f ll l i ti il blfollow-up care plan incorporating available evidence-based standards of care.

Some conclusions
At a national level, confidence in knowledge of the care of breast and colorectal cancer patients is low among PCPs
PCPs’ skill in caring for cancer survivors is rated low by oncologists, and ambivalently by PCPsambivalently by PCPs
A minority of physicians (both PCPs and oncologists) advocate primary PCP responsibility for cancer survivor care
M t PCP f h d l t d d l– Most PCPs favor shared or oncology-centered model– Most oncologists favor oncology-centered model
PCPs and oncologists report engaging in care coordination practices, but have divergent perceptions about the extent
– Communication about physician roles– Sharing of specific aspects of cancer survivor careg p p
Self-rated provision of treatment summaries / care plans is less than ideal– Provision to patients is relatively low– Provision to PCPs is higher but discordant perceptions among PCPsProvision to PCPs is higher, but discordant perceptions among PCPs

A treatment model that engages front line cancer care practitioners by providing support, resources, and guidanceguidance.
Care managers are front-line oncology health professionalsp– that are trained in oncology first– then receive additional mental heath training using well
developed protocol-based manualsdeveloped protocol based manuals.A small number of specialised mental health
practitioners supply, support, and manage the i t ti b i il bl intervention by accessing more available practitioners
