Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Multilevel Intervention Behavioral: Provider Prompt & Patient Outreach and Education
To target lack of provider-prompted discussion about lung screening, an electronic medical record (EMR) message will be sent to primary care providers prior to scheduled visits with screening-eligible patients to notify them of the patient's eligibility and to encourage discussion of the benefits and limitations of the test. To target patient-level knowledge about lung screening, an outreach specialist will educate screening-eligible patients about the benefits and limitations of the test prior to their visit.

No Intervention: Nonequivalent Control Group



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. provider-patient discussion [ Time Frame: 1-week post-visit ]
    Discussion about lung screening with the provider ('did you have a discussion with your doctor about lung screening?')

  2. lung cancer screening intentions [ Time Frame: 1-week post-visit ]
    Screening intentions ('how likely is it that you will undergo lung screening in the next 6-months?')

  3. lung cancer screening knowledge [ Time Frame: 1-week post-visit ]
    15-item lung cancer screening knowledge measure


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. lung cancer screening referrals [ Time Frame: 6-months ]
    Total number of lung screening orders captured via the electronic medical record

  2. lung cancer screening completion rates [ Time Frame: 6-months ]
    Total number of lung screening completions captured via the electronic medical record
