Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of eligible CRC and NSCLC survivors with medical record documentation of compliance with NCCN guidelines

    A test of the binomial proportion will have 99% power with 1% type I error to make this distinction.

    Up to 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in percentage of eligible survivors with documentation of compliance with NCCN survivorship guidelines after conducting the targeted educational initiative at participating sites

    Baseline and up to 6 months

Study Arms (1)

Health services research (educational intervention)

EXPERIMENTAL

Health care providers complete an educational intervention based on NCCN guidelines in CRC and NSCLC survivorship care comprising a power point presentation reviewing evidence and prompts for addressing survivorship care components; and an electronic paper copy sample survivorship care plan that can be adapted and distributed at each participating site.

Other: educational interventionOther: medical chart review

Interventions

  • Cancer Registry cases include stage I-III colon cancer (adenocarcinoma histology), stage I-III rectal cancer (adenocarcinoma histology), stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer (squamous or adenocarcinoma histology)
  • Patients must have completed all therapy for curative intent at least six months prior to chart audit
  • Undergoing routine oncology care and surveillance at the chosen site (defined as receiving follow-up care with FCCC or FCCCP site health care providers and have an active medical chart)
  • No evidence of metastatic disease
  • Patients must have been seen for a visit for cancer surveillance between 2009 and 2013
  • Health care providers at the participating site must be willing and able to participate in the educational initiative
  • Charts eligible for audit after completion of the educational initiative will be for those CRC and NSCLC survivors presenting for follow-up after the initiative has been completed by site health care providers

You may not qualify if:

  • Cancer Registry cases for diseases other than colon or rectal adenocarcinoma and non-small cell lung cancer (squamous or adenocarcinoma histology)
  • Patients currently receiving active therapy for any cancer, including CRC or NSCLC
  • Patients who do not undergo routine oncologic care at the chosen Partners site or Fox Chase Cancer Center
  • Stage IV cancer or evidence of metastatic disease at any time point
  • Patients who have not undergone a visit for cancer surveillance since 2009
  • Fox Chase Cancer Partners sites who do not agree to chart audit procedures or providers are unable or unwilling to participate in the educational initiative
