Overview
This research study is evaluating a program that entails remote monitoring and home-based care for people with cancer who are receiving chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or chemoradiotherapy.
Description
Participants receiving treatment for cancer often require multiple care visits and may experience significant symptoms and side-effects related to the cancer and the cancer treatment.

Remote monitoring is broadly defined as a way of monitor outside of conventional clinical settings (e.g. in the home) that often utilizes technology to increase access to care. Eligible participants will be randomized into one of two groups: * Usual Care or * Supportive Oncology Care at Home It is expected that about 300 people will take part in this research study.
