Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The role of this observational study is to access the feasibility of providing lung cancer screening using a designated nurse navigator through lung cancer screening clinic. Eligible participants will be identified using medical records, eligibility will be confirmed through phone call, screening visits will be scheduled as in-person visit or telehealth visit. Computed tomography screening will be performed at an approved center closer to the individuals place of living and results will be discussed during follow-up in-person visit or telehealth visit.
