This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing two different ways to encourage people at high risk for lung cancer to get screening. One group will receive basic information about screening, while the other group will have their screening appointment scheduled for them and will receive text message reminders to help them follow through. The goal is to see which approach helps more people actually complete lung cancer screening.
Many people who are at risk for lung cancer don't get screened, even though early screening can save lives. This study is trying to find better ways to reach people in the emergency department and help them get the screening they need.

If you enroll, you will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group will receive written materials and information about scheduling a lung cancer screening. The other group will have a screening appointment scheduled for them during your emergency department visit and will receive text messages over the following weeks to remind and encourage you to complete your screening. Either way, a lung cancer screening coordinator may call you to discuss whether screening is right for you. You will be followed up 120 days (about 4 months) after enrollment to see if you completed your screening.
