Results of a randomized controlled study of personalized care plans in breast cancer survivors from a single institution.

109 Background: In 2006, Institute of Medicine recommended care plans for coordination of care of cancer survivors. Our pilot study of multifaceted care plans met information and communication needs of breast cancer (BC) survivors and their primary care providers (PCP). In this study, a Personalized Multifaceted Care Plan (PMCP) was developed, implemented and evaluated. Methods: This was a randomized study with mixed methods design.
