Maine Lung Cancer Coalition: Using CHWs for the Annual Lung Cancer Screening Reminder

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.
