About this trial
The Quit and Screen Project seeks to engage healthcare providers in helping adults who smoke to quit tobacco use, including menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars, and screen for lung cancer early as strategies to reduce multiple chronic diseases.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the feasibility and impact of the Quit and Screen Project alone versus the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training + the Quit and Screen Project training modules on changes in provider knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intentions related to provider advice to quit smoking and referrals for low dose computed tomography among health care providers randomly assigned to each condition. Participants will complete the training modules and complete pre- and post-tests to assess these outcomes.
