Since then, efforts to recognize and address the unique needs of cancer survivors have increased, including an emphasis on improving the evidence base for cancer survivorship care and identifying best practices in the delivery of high-quality cancer survivorship care. To examine progress in cancer survivorship care since the Lost in Transition report, the National Cancer Policy Forum of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop in July 2017, in Washington, DC. Workshop participants highlighted potential opportunities to improve the planning, management, and delivery of cancer survivorship care. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop"--Publisher's description Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 111-130) Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (National Academies Press, viewed July 13, 2018) Subject Cancer -- Patients -- Care -- United States -- Congresses Cancer -- Patients -- Social aspects -- United States -- Congresses Cancer -- Patients -- Care -- United States -- Psychological aspects -- Congresses Cancer -- Patients -- Care -- Government policy -- United States -- Congresses Victims.
