Background

While the benefits and acceptability of remote patient monitoring (RPM) during cancer care are well documented, barriers to implementation and use of these digital technologies remain. Feasibility may be particularly restricted in rural settings. The Association of Community Cancer Centers (ACCC) surveyed U.S. cancer programs, patients with cancer and caregivers in various geographic settings to illuminate the current practice landscape and perceptions regarding the use of digital technologies to monitor patients for adverse events and collect patient reported outcomes (PROs).
