Abstract
Increasing melanoma incidence and improved survival emphasize the importance of survivorship care plans (SCPs). We conducted a multistakeholder Delphi study to achieve consensus on core melanoma SCP content. Of the 44 potential elements, 24 (55%) reached consensus for inclusion. Notably, melanoma survivors and healthcare providers differed in their preferences, with survivors prioritizing coordination improvements and healthcare providers emphasizing psychosocial care. Exploring and overcoming these differences in opinions and including the consented elements as a basis in the design of the SCP can facilitate its implementation in practice and lead to survivorship care tailored to stakeholders’ needs.
