We have a SAS Note available on this issue:
Usage Note 45197: How can I obtain survival estimates from PROC SURVEYPHREG?
http://support.sas.com/kb/45/197.html
Here is some additional information about the BASELINE statement from the SURVEYPHREG developer
==========================================================================================
PROC SURVEYPHREG cannot be used to produce survival estimates (or hazard estimates which aren't available with PHREG either) at this time. The BASELINE statement, typical of PROC PHREG, is not available in PROC SURVEYPHREG at this time.
If the objective is to compute the estimated survival function then PROC PHREG with the WEIGHT statement can be used. However, if the standard errors of the estimated survival are required then PROC PHREG should not be used. So, In other words, the survival point estimates using PROC PHREG are fine, but the standard errors are not.
Estimation of the standard error for the estimated survival for survey data is not straightforward. It is not impossible, but substantial work both theoretical and computational are required. Therefore we decided to wait for users response before working on this feature. We are researching this feature but we need to fully understand the estimation of the standard errors for estimated survival for complex surveys before introducing such capability into PROC SURVEYPHREG.
