The impact of cancer survivorship care plans on patient and health care provider outcomes: a current perspective.

CONCLUSION: Currently, there is not enough evidence to warrant large-scale implementation of SCPs, or to abandon SCPs altogether. Emphasis on the SCP process and survivor engagement, supporting self-management may be an important way forward in SCP delivery. Whether this is beneficial and cost-effective on the long term and among different groups of cancer survivors needs further investigation. PMID: 28084140 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
