In recognition of this, SCPs were recommended, in the first comprehensive manner, by the Institute of Medicine [5] . Several templates exist (e.g. American Society of Clinical Oncology [6] , Lance Armstrong Foundation/ OncoLink [7] , and Journey Forward [8] ), but patients criticize these tem-plates as being too technical, lacking personalization, and being deficient in resource and wellness guides [2, 9] . Barriers to development and implementation of these care plans include difficulty in identifying evidence-based components [10] , insufficient reimbursement for record abstraction [11] , lack of specific medical knowledge by primary care physicians (particularly regarding hematologic malignancies) [12] , and poor communication between oncologists and primary care physicians [5, 13] .
