Family medicine providers' perceptions of their ability to provide evidence-based survivorship care

16 Background: Opportunities for medical students and primary care providers to learn about evidence-based cancer survivorship care remains limited. To fill this void, we created an innovative curriculum using ECHO, a tele-mentoring approach, to teach faculty and residents in family medicine programs about the core principles and skills of survivorship care. Our objective was to explore participants' perceptions about their self-efficacy to deliver high quality care to survivors. Methods: Subjects were recruited from 3 academic centers with medical residency programs collaborating with our cancer center in a state-funded education grant to develop a tele-mentoring training program. The survey, which was developed by the research team, measured self-efficacy and satisfaction. Subjects were asked to rate their confidence in their abilities to offer evidence-based care after completing the program. Descriptive statistics were used to report results. REDCap, a web-based application, was used to manage the development and distribution of the survey. Results: A total of 116 surveys were sent out electronically with 59 returned (50.9%). Table 1 indicates most participants reported the ECHO program increased their knowledge, clinical skills, and expertise to provide comprehensive survivorship care. Conclusions: Overall, the participants’ perceptions of their expertise to offer optimal survivorship care were positive. There is room for improvement to maximize the learning experience for all participants.[Table: see text]
