Summary: The care of childhood cancer survivors is a complex specialty that requires the integration of tertiary and primary care. Pediatric oncologists and survivorship nurse coordinators emphasize specialist expertise and holistic family-centered care as the key benefits of tertiary and primary care, respectively. However, challenges faced by tertiary-led survivorship care include a lack of dedicated funding and costs/travel burden, while primary-led survivorship care is challenged by insufficient GP training and reliance on oncologist-developed action plans. GPs also express the need for ongoing access to survivorship expertise/consultants to support care decisions at critical times.
