Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

Second opinion retention rates for cancer patients at University of Colorado
a. The study team will perform a retrospective chart review to identify patients with breast cancer, colorectal cancer or pancreatic cancer who were seen by a surgeon at the University of Colorado for a second opinion and to examine whether or not the subject stayed at the Cancer Center to receive cancer care. The study team predict the second opinion retention rate - the percent of patients who received a second opinion at the Cancer Center and ultimately received care at this institution - will be significantly higher for pancreatic cancer patients than for breast and colorectal cancer patients.
12 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

Univariate statistical analysis affecting second opinion retention rates
12 months

Other Outcomes (1)

Patient opinions on decision making process through semi-structure interviews
12 months

Study Arms (2)

Retrospective Chart Review Patients

The PI will conduct a retrospective chart review of breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and pancreatic cancer patients to better understand the patient, disease, and treatment characteristics that play a role in second opinion retention rates.

Semi-structure Interview Patients

The PI will conduct semi-structured interviews with breast cancer, colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer patients to better understand the decision-making process that goes into continued care with their primary or second opinion physician.
