Summary

Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening for lung cancer improves outcomes but has low uptake. This pilot project identified barriers and success factors for LDCT referral programs in federally qualified health centers.

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonology
  • Oncology
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening significantly improves lung cancer outcomes for eligible individuals.
  • Uptake of LDCT screening remains low, particularly in resource-limited healthcare settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and refine lung cancer screening referral processes within federally qualified health centers (FQHCs).
  • To identify barriers and facilitators for successful implementation of LDCT screening programs.

Main Methods:

  • A pilot project involving two FQHCs in Tennessee and West Virginia, partnering with American College of Radiology-designated screening centers.
  • A two-phase approach: 6 months of capacity building followed by 2 years of implementation.
  • Case study analysis of implementation barriers and success factors.

Main Results:

  • One FQHC successfully established a sustainable LDCT referral program.
  • The other FQHC faced significant barriers that hindered program implementation.
  • Key factors influencing success and barriers were identified.

Conclusions:

  • Implementing sustainable lung cancer screening programs in FQHCs is feasible but presents challenges.
  • Understanding and addressing specific barriers is crucial for increasing LDCT screening access and improving patient outcomes.
