First seen Nov 12, 2025 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study looks at whether using telehealth (video or phone visits) can help more people who are at high risk for lung cancer complete a shared decision-making visit, which is the first step to getting screened. About 6,000 adults aged 50 to 80 with a heavy smoking history will be invited to schedule a telehealth or in-person visit. The goal is to see if telehealth makes screening easier and if it works equally well for people of different races and sexes.
