Study Summary

This trial is testing whether increasing the coordination of care between the cancer care team and the primary care team improves care and outcomes for prostate cancer survivors.

They must be able to fill out questionnaires in English, have a primary care provider or cardiologist, and consent to the study. Practices need IRB approval, complete specific training, and follow certain protocols. Patients already on ADT for no more than 120 days may join.Check my eligibility

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Enhanced Survivorship Care Plan (SCP)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Practices review a treatment plan with patient and send it to the PCP at the beginning of RT. Practices also review a SCP with patients and send it to the PCP during the last week of RT.
Group II: Standard Survivorship Care Plan (SCP)Active Control2 Interventions
Practices review a SCP with patients and send it to the PCP during the last week of RT.
