This study will assess the impact of centralized outreach on lung cancer screening completion among individuals served by Federally Qualified Health Centers.
This will be a two-arm, parallel, pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate the effectiveness of a centralized patient outreach strategy in increasing lung cancer screening (LCS) completion among populations served by Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs). This study will randomize individuals potentially eligible for LCS (50-80 years, current or past smokers) to receive centralized patient outreach in addition to usual care (outreach arm) and usual care alone (usual care arm). Individuals assigned to the outreach arm will receive centralized patient outreach from the Lung s…

Centralized patient outreach for lung cancer screening will be conducted by the lung screening team and will consist of a letter followed by telephone contact. One week following the mail invitation, a senior patient coordinator (SPC) will make telephone contact with individuals to pre-screen eligibility determination based on pack-year smoking history. Up to three telephone contact attempts will be made within two weeks.
