简要总结
This research study will test whether support from a Community Health Worker (CHW) to address barriers to annual LDCT screening will result in an increased number of patients who receive the annual screening as per the recommended standard of care compared to passive outreach using a reminder letter.
详细描述
This research study is a randomized controlled trial comparing phone outreach by a trained Community Health Worker (CHW) following a reminder letter to the reminder letter alone for patients who are at least a month overdue to have a routine annual low dose CT scan (LDCT) screening for lung cancer. CHWs will be able to identify and address barriers to accessing screening for those patients randomized to that arm of the study. Outcomes that will be measured include scheduling and completing the LDCT as well as agreeing to a referral for tobacco treatment.
