The Cancer Experience Registry®: An Online Survey Research Study to Understand the Experiences of Those Impacted By a Cancer Diagnosis. The Registry is a web-based platform to distribute cross-sectional and longitudinal surveys. Study surveys are designed based on input from advisor experts, including patients and caregivers, and focus on the social, emotional, physical, financial and decision-making experiences of those who have been diagnosed with cancer and their caregivers. Findings contribute toward enhancing care for patients, survivors and caregivers via programming and policy initiatives.

The aims of the Registry are to: 1) better understand the psychosocial experiences and needs of people who have been impacted by cancer, including patients, survivors and caregivers; 2) inform the research community, healthcare providers, patient advocates and policy makers around gaps in care and the psychosocial challenges of people affected by cancer; 3) use the findings to develop and disseminate tailored (data-guided) programs and services that will address the emotional and social needs and ultimately improve the long-term quality of life of people affected by cancer; 4) link registrants to cancer related resources and programs via an online, modifiable platform; and 5) provide collaborating sites (e.g., hospitals/health networks/CSC affiliates) with aggregated reports on quality and needs of members or customers to enhance or improve quality of care. Findings from the Registry are disseminated online at https://www.cancersupportcommunity.org/sites/default/files/file/2020-07/CSC_Registry_Report_June_2020.pdf
