Abstract
In Spain, as around the world, the number of cancer survivors is increasing. There were an estimated 500,000 cancer survivors in 2010. In spite of recognition that Survivorship Care Plans (SCPs) are needed, their implementation in Spain has been slower than in other countries and only in very recent years some small initiatives have been carried out. This editorial addresses the difficulties to implement SCPs in the Spanish Health Services and which are the opportunities that favour a scenario in which PCPs and oncologists can offer a real patient-centred care to cancer survivors.
