- description
- Physicians (MD or DO) in the oncology departments of participating hospitals will complete a survey. Non-English language proficiency will be assessed by self-assessment using Interagency Language Roundtable (ILR) scale, which the PI has previously used. The physician survey is collected among treating physicians of patients enrolled to MSK IRB approved protocols 12-099 and 12-223 at some of the participating hospitals. For physicians who already completed this survey as part of participation in protocol 12-099 or 12-223, data will be extracted from the respective study's REDCap database.
