Survivorship Survey: Clinician Perspective Web Briefing
Since 2019, Cancer Nation has conducted a Survivorship Survey of cancer survivors and caregivers to learn about their experiences with cancer care, during and after treatment. This year, we wanted to hear the other side of the story: what do clinicians see as the barriers to delivering coordinated, whole-person care?
Cancer Nation worked with Edge Research to survey 306 primary care providers (PCPs) and 302 oncologists nationwide to find out what really happens once a cancer diagnosis moves from one clinician’s hands to many. The answer: care that is supposed to be team-based is still running on individual effort, and survivors are too often the ones stitching it all together.
In this web briefing, Cancer Nation CEO Shelley Fuld Nasso, CEO of Cancer Nation, and Pam Loeb and Mariel Molina of Edge Research, present the full findings and what they mean for policy, practice, and the 18 million+ people living with, through, and beyond cancer.
