Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Multilevel Intervention

no intervention: Nonequivalent Control Group

Interventions

Provider Prompt & Patient Outreach and Education

To target lack of provider-prompted discussion about lung screening, an electronic medical record (EMR) message will be sent to primary care providers prior to scheduled visits with screening-eligible patients to notify them of the patient's eligibility and to encourage discussion of the benefits and limitations of the test. To target patient-level knowledge about lung screening, an outreach specialist will educate screening-eligible patients about the benefits and limitations of the test prior to their visit.

Primary outcome measure

  • provider-patient discussion [ Time Frame: 1-week post-visit ]
  • lung cancer screening intentions [ Time Frame: 1-week post-visit ]
  • lung cancer screening knowledge [ Time Frame: 1-week post-visit ]
