How long does the bundle last?
The program begins upon enrollment with the oncology nurse navigator, who will be your primary point of contact as you navigate the Vanderbilt Ingram Cancer Center (VICC). Important notes:
- If you have surgery for your cancer, the program will end when your care team considers that the surgery is successful and no further cancer treatment is required.
- The program will end when your care team considers you to be in remission and/or transitions you into surveillance treatment (close monitoring and evaluation) or survivorship.
- If you enrolled due to a suspected malignancy, and tests confirm there is no malignancy, the program will end immediately. Likewise, the program will end if you have a diagnosis that requires surveillance-only.
