Shifting specialized oncological care from hospital- to home-setting: is there support among patients, specialists and general practitioners?

However, some barriers impeding transmural continuous care should be tackled before implementing such model into practice. Better communication between health-care professionals and more patients contacts are suggested, and an adjusted legal and financial framework is required.
