Over the past 10 years, there has been a considerable increase in use of Patient-Reported Outcomes to both inform individual cancer patient care and better understand population health. This talk will highlight where these areas overlap: (1) examining patient engagement barriers and the potential tailored symptom reports for cancer patients, and (2) current work examining the relationship between neighborhood-level social risk and PRO outcomes.
