Summary

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death among Veterans with 90% of cases attributable to smoking. Lung cancer screening (LCS) combined with smoking cessation saves the most lives. ICARE-LCS seeks to decrease health inequality and improve Veteran health by reducing smoking rates among Veterans receiving LCS. ICARE-LCS will use implementation methods to inform national cancer prevention efforts and build infrastructure necessary to support broad implementation of high-impact tobacco dependence treatment (TDT) processes in LCS programs.
