QOL Assessment in Cancer Survivors Integrated Into Routine Clinical Care

Quality of Life Assessment in Cancer Survivors Integrated Into Routine Clinical Care Implementation in an Integrated Health System

This observational cohort study of patients who received cancer treatment (of any modality) in the last 18 months are evaluated by the use of a validated QOL tool (FACT-GP) and are evaluated via telephone or in person or both. Patients with high-risk for unmet needs or distress as determined by the FACT-GP are referred to an in-person Multidisciplinary Cancer Survivorship Clinic. This is considered standard of care at the investigator's institution and is part of the continuous clinical quality improvement program within the Geisinger Cancer Institute.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Diagnosis of malignancy in the last 18 months, treated with curative intent

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients treated with palliative intent, metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis
