Overview

Patients are managed within the clinical team post transplant. They are not routed to a different provider for survivorship care. New strategies for survivorship program development are being researched currently. The program anticipates some improved education to be provided to the patients in a means to improve ultimate patient care. The NP Manager will be implementing a pilot on survivorship in 2019. All post allo patients will also receive survivorship care plans as part of their 1 yr milestone visit. Currently this has not been streamlined. All patients are followed by their primary BMT Provider as needed, including milestone visits at 1 month, 100 days, 6 months, and annually.
