Summary

This study is testing if a special training program for doctors makes them more likely to refer their inactive patients to a free telephone coaching service. The coaching, called MoveLine, helps people become more physically active to lower their risk of several cancers. About 48 doctors from rural Pennsylvania clinics are participating to see if this approach works.
