The goal of this research study is to compare two different ways to increase lung cancer screening rates for tobacco quitline clients.
Inclusion Criteria:
Quitline Client
Quitline client participants must meet the criteria for LCS with regards to age (50 to 80 years) and smoking history (20+ pack-years). This project will not re-confirm quitline client participant eligibility for screening. Tobacco treatment specialists will elicit study interest from only eligible quitline clients.
Representative of the Quitline Community
Representative of the Quitline Community will include any employee of the quitline service provider, representative from an organization that collaborates or funds a tobacco quitline, and/or a representative of the state department of health. All individuals will be adults (18 years and older) and able to speak English.
Representative of the Healthcare Sector
Representative of the healthcare sector will include any adult who works in healthcare, including but not limited to physicians, healthcare administrative leaders/managers, nurses, advanced practice providers. All individuals will be adults (18 years and older) and able to speak English.
Exclusion Criteria:
Not applicable as our focus on quitline clients and representatives (adults) of the quitline community or the healthcare sector.

Investigators will use a parallel randomized controlled trial to compare a high-touch strategy (emailing/texting + decision coaching + navigation) to a low-touch strategy (emailing/texting) to distribute evidence based LCS educational resources to increase awareness and demand for LCS among quitline clients.
