Summary

This trial looks at how educating patients and providers on lung cancer screening can help find the cancer earlier and increase screening rates.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 50-77 who currently smoke or quit within the last 15 years, with a significant smoking history. They must be able to communicate in English or Spanish and have an upcoming primary care visit. Excluded are those recently hospitalized, with dementia, prior lung cancer, or recent CT scans.
What is being tested?
The study evaluates if education and counseling can increase lung cancer screening rates among smokers or recent quitters. It involves survey administration, electronic health record review, and educational activities aimed at both healthcare providers and patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on education and counseling rather than medication or invasive procedures, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience stress or anxiety related to learning about their risk of lung cancer.
