Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this project is to increase appropriate low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) lung cancer screening through the development and wide dissemination of patient-centered clinical decision support (CDS) tools that (1) are integrated with the electronic health record (EHR) and clinical workflows, (2) prompt for shared decision making (SDM) when patients meet screening criteria, and (3) enable effective SDM using individually-tailored information on the potential benefits and harms of screening. The study will promote standard of care that is endorsed by the Centers for Medicare \& Medicaid Services (CMS) and the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF).

- type
- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Patients eligible for LDCT lung cancer screening
- description
- This population will consist of patients eligible for, or potentially eligible for, LDCT lung cancer screening according to 2013 USPSTF guidelines. The inclusion criteria are (i) \>= 55 years and \<= 80 years old at the time of the visit; (ii) does not already have lung cancer; and (iii) meets USPSTF smoking criteria for LDCT screening (30+ pack-year smoking history and current smoker or quit in the past 15 years) or may meet the criteria if a complete smoking history were taken.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Number of Participants With Lung Cancer Screening (LCS) Care-Gap Closed
- timeFrame
- Through study completion, an average of 18 months for the intervention period and 12 months for the baseline period
- description
- The LCS care gap was considered closed if one or more of the following events occurred: (1) LDCT completion in the past year, (2) completion of another chest CT in the past year, or (3) SDM documentation in the past 3 years for eligible patients. To assess population care-gap closure levels at the end of each study period, we estimated the care-gap closure status for all patients who had primary care visits in the 12 months preceding the last day of the period. Using structured EHR data, SDM was considered documented if a clinician noted the need for LCS discussion was addressed, the patient declined screening, or LCS was not appropriate.
