Summary

This trial seeks to improve follow-up of Lung Cancer Screening (LCS) through Tele-Navigation, to ultimately reduce mortality & optimize cost-effectiveness.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking individuals who are eligible for and overdue a low-dose CT scan (LDCT) as part of lung cancer screening follow-up. Participants must have had their initial screening at UMMH and possess the technology to complete study activities, such as video calls. Those with a previous or active cancer diagnosis, nursing home residents, or pregnant individuals cannot join.
What is being tested?
The Tele-Navi LCS intervention uses telehealth to improve adherence to follow-up lung cancer screenings. The study will create this program with patient input and test its feasibility in primary care by tracking if participants complete it and their subsequent LDCT within 180 days.
What are the potential side effects?
Since Tele-Navi LCS is a non-medical intervention involving telehealth navigation support, there are no direct medical side effects associated with drugs or procedures. However, participants may experience issues related to the use of technology.
