Survivorship Care Plans in a Community Oncology Practice

Feasibility of Delivering Electronic Health Record (EHR)-Based Survivorship Care Plans and Planning to Cancer Survivors in a Community Oncology Practice

This is a two part observational study evaluating the feasibility of implementing an EHR-based model within a community oncology practice.

Part 1: The research team will use a sociotechnical work systems model, developed by researchers at the University of Wisconsin (UW) Systems Engineering Initiative for Patience Safety (SEIPS), to guide analysis of the work system barriers and facilitators to implementing an EHR-based care planning model in community oncology practice, collected from direct observations.

Part 2: The research team will measure reach/maintenance (percentage of survivors with EHR-based survivorship care plans (SCPs) over a 9-month time period) and impact (pre/post survey of patient satisfaction and perceived care coordination).

Inclusion Criteria:

• Clinicians: Provide cancer care to BrCa, CRCa or PrCa
• Clinicians: Are a physician, advanced practice practitioner, nurse, or equivalent
• Patients: Have a diagnosis of breast, colorectal, or prostate cancer for which and EHR-based SCP will be provided
• Patients: Have been treated with curative intent (e.g. surgery, chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy) for a Stage 1-3 cancer diagnosis
• Patients: Have received some part of active cancer treatment
• Patients: Have complete active treatment (defined as surgery, chemotherapy, and/or radiation therapy). HER2-based and endocrine therapies may be ongoing and do NOT need to have been completed

Exclusion Criteria:

• Unable to complete or unwilling to answer questions in English
• Patients: Received all active cancer treatment elsewhere (e.g. "observation - only" patients)
• Patients: Have metastatic cancer
