Victorian Quality Cancer Survivorship Care Framework and Policy Template (2021)
The Australian Cancer Survivorship Centre (ACSC), funded by the Victorian Government, conducted a literature review, environmental scan, Delphi study and expert consensus meeting to answer the question ‘what quality criteria do survivorship experts consider to be important in achieving optimal cancer survivorship care?’
It developed the Victorian Quality Cancer Survivorship Care Framework (2021) and resultant Victorian Quality Cancer Survivorship Care Policy Template (2021) for health services.
This work is reflected in the Victorian Cancer Plan 2020-24, action area 4.3: ‘Activity in the next four years will develop and implement a framework to define and measure the quality elements of survivorship care.’
A peer-reviewed manuscript describing the development of this framework is available: Lisy et al (2021).
ACSC acknowledges this work builds on the important research of others, including Nekhlyudov et al (2019).
