This study is looking at different ways to help people decide about lung cancer screening (LCS). It tests if using telehealth (like video calls or text messages) can increase the number of people who complete a shared decision-making (SDM) visit for LCS. These visits help you understand the benefits and risks of screening. The study will compare different approaches: inviting you to choose between in-person or telehealth visits, inviting you to telehealth visits only, or sending text message reminders, sometimes with phone support. Researchers also want to see if these strategies work equally well for people of different races and sexes. You might be able to join if you are 50-80 years old, have a history of smoking, and have no history of lung cancer. The study aims to measure how many people complete an SDM visit within 90 days of starting.

Study design

This is an interventional study planning to enroll 6000 participants. It uses a Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) design, meaning participants may receive different interventions in stages.

What's involved

Participants will receive letters and/or text messages inviting them to complete a shared decision-making visit, either in-person or via telehealth.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

The primary outcome, shared decision-making for lung cancer screening, is measured at 90 days after randomization.
