Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate 1) rural patients’ perceptions of their own rurality and its effects on experience of head and neck cancer survivorship, and 2) potential barriers and facilitators to survivorship care within an integrated health care delivery system of the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Data from qualitative interviews with Veterans who have a history of head and neck cancer are presented to understand the complex ways that rurality impacts cancer survivorship. Head and neck cancer survivors must contend with specific challenges resulting from their risk factors and treatment, including access to complex medical follow up, long-term physical and psychological effects of treatment, and tobacco- and alcohol-related comorbidities. While integration within the VHA facilitates coordination of specialty and primary care and the transfer of medical information, the use of community care in rural areas presents coordination challenges, especially for survivors with comorbidities.

Purpose This guideline provides recommendations on the management of adults after head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment, focusing on surveillance and screening for recurrence or second primary cancers, assessment and management of long-term and late effects, health promotion, care coordination, and practice implications. Methods ASCO has a policy and set of procedures for endorsing clinical practice guidelines that have been developed by other professional organizations. The American Cancer Society (ACS) HNC Survivorship Care Guideline was reviewed for developmental rigor by methodologists. An ASCO Expert Panel reviewed the content and recommendations, offering modifications and/or qualifying statements when deemed necessary. Results The ASCO Expert Panel determined that the ACS HNC Survivorship Care Guideline, published in 2016, is clear, thorough, clinically practical, and helpful, despite the limited availability of high-quality evidence to support many of the recommendations. ASCO endorsed the ACS HNC Survivorship Care Guideline, adding qualifying statements aimed at promoting team-based, multispecialty, multidisciplinary, collaborative head and neck survivorship care. Recommendations The ASCO Expert Panel emphasized that caring for HNC survivors requires a team-based approach that includes primary care clinicians, oncology specialists, otolaryngologists, dentists, and other allied professionals. The HNC treatment team should educate the primary care clinicians and patients about the type(s) of treatment received, the likelihood of potential recurrence, and the potential late and long-term complications. Primary care clinicians should recognize symptoms of recurrence and coordinate a prompt evaluation. They should also be prepared to manage late effects either directly or by referral to appropriate specialists. Health promotion is critical, particularly regarding tobacco cessation and dental care.
