What this trial is about
This clinical trial tests how well providing education improves screening for lung cancer in patients with a history of smoking. Screenings may help doctors find lung cancer sooner when it may be easier to treat. Education and counseling may be an effective method to help providers and patients learn about lung cancer screening. Providing education and decision counseling to providers and patients may increase lung cancer screening.
