KanSurvive 2.0: Testing Enhanced Models of Cancer Survivorship Care for Rural Cancer Survivors in Primary Care Practice

Summary

Rural cancer survivors experience a higher risk of negative health outcomes and require coordinated care to address the many effects of cancer and its treatment. Primary care providers recognize the importance of providing high-quality, evidence-based survivorship care and are well-positioned to meet survivor needs, however, these needs are often unmet due to limitations in knowledge, lack of resources, and administrative demands. Practical strategies are needed to help PCPs improve cancer survivorship care, and this proposal will test implementation strategies to optimize the adoption of evidence-based practices for cancer survivorship care in rural primary care settings.

Conditions

• Cancer Survivorship
• Primary Care

Interventions

OTHER

KanSurvive telementoring and education

Telementoring, education, and case-based learning covering evidence-based practice guidelines for breast, colorectal, lung, and prostate cancer survivorship.

OTHER

Practice facilitation for quality improvement

Practice facilitation will be delivered to assist with quality improvement efforts using monthly Plan Do Study Act (PDSA) cycles.

OTHER

Obesity management toolkit

The Enhanced Usual Care arm will receive a short, virtual training and toolkit on the management of obesity in primary care practice and how it relates to cancer survivorship.

OTHER

Survivorship Care Manual

Printed and digital manuals will be distributed to each participating primary care practice to share with the cancer survivors they see in their clinic. The manual guides patients on how to engage more effectively with their PCP and oncology care team and reviews recommended follow-up, within a format of a "service manual" and written in lay language.

OTHER

Virtual scribe services

Participating practices who opt-in to receive virtual scribe services.
