“…With an estimated 250,000 people in the UK having a diagnosis of CRC, pressure is evident on follow-up services through competing demands of new patient management, alongside growing numbers of survivors [2]. Traditionally, following treatment, patients enter routine outpatient follow-up (OPFU) delivered by medical clinicians, and more recently by clinical nurse specialists (CNS) [3–6], for surveillance to detect treatable recurrence and manage on-going symptoms [7, 8]. Although intensive follow-up investigations to detect recurrence after curative resection offer a survival benefit for CRC, clinical examination has been shown to be of limited value [8, 9].…”

“…Advances in systemic therapy and surgical options have led to an improved prognosis for many patients diagnosed with cancer and, thus, a growing population of cancer survivors . Current models of postoperative cancer surveillance among survivors may, however, be expensive, ineffective, and therefore not sustainable . In addition, the volume of surveillance visits may be a burden on the health care system, as well as providers, survivors, and family members .…”

“…Providing optimal, tailored PCC should include assessment of patient‐specific wishes related to both decisions about the surgical procedure itself, as well as how surveillance is performed in the years following operative intervention. In fact, patients can experience cancer‐specific anxiety related to undergoing active surveillance . In turn, cancer‐related anxiety can be associated with depression, mental health issues, and adversely impact patient quality‐of‐life .…”

“…Recommendations from a variety of surgical, medical specialty, and cancer organizations including the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and the American Society of Clinical Oncology outline the type and sequence of clinical follow‐up after curative‐intent cancer treatment. While there is ongoing debate regarding optimal surveillance schedules for specific disease sites, data suggest that adherence to surveillance may portend a survival benefit and enable detection and successful treatment of asymptomatic recurrence …”
