Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) were computed for survivor and physician ratings of individual informational needs. Two-sample t-tests and exact chi-square tests were used to assess the relationship between outcome (e.g., informational needs or type of health care provider) and survivor/physician subgroups. Gender, age at diagnosis (<60 years, =60 years), and time since diagnosis (<5 years, =5 years) were used as survivor subgroups and specialty (oncology, nononcology) was considered for physicians. Sixty years was chosen as the age cut-off, consistent with the International Prognostic Index [20] . Likewise, 5 years since diagnosis was chosen as a cut-off, as the 5-year time horizon from diagnosis often signifies ''cure'' from cancer.
