Lung Cancer Screening
Conditions
Brief summary
This clinical trial studies whether a Quality Implementation of Lung Cancer Screening (QUILS™) System state-based initiative (SBI) intervention works to improve the statewide capacity for implementing and sustaining lung cancer screening in Mississippi (MS) and Nevada (NV). The QUILS™ Group is focused on fair and high-quality implementation of lung cancer screening among eligible individuals to reduce lung cancer-related death in underserved communities. Previous research had success with implementing interventions in Kentucky which has lead to significant increases in lung cancer screening rates and a rapid decline in late-stage lung cancer diagnoses within the state. The goal is to offer the opportunity to replicate this work in states which are eager to address suboptimal screening rates, high lung cancer-related death, and significant health equity concerns. The QUILS™ SBI intervention involves translating the success of the initial work in Kentucky to impact lung cancer screening implementation and lung cancer outcomes in MS and NV through close collaboration with state-based partners. The QUILS™ SBI intervention may be an effective way to improve the statewide capacity for implementing and sustaining lung cancer screening in MS and NV.
Interventions
BEHAVIORALQUILS SBI Intervention
Participants implement the QUILS™ SBI intervention over 4 years consisting of the following steps: 1) Hire and establish connections with both groups, work with the MSLCRT and NLCC during year 1; 2) Participate in annual meetings hosted by MSCLRT and NLCC during years 1-4; 3) Attend State Team Assessment Feedback Sessions during years 2-4; 4) Attend Coalition Assessment Feedback Sessions during years 2-4; 5) Prioritize objectives, identify areas to support, implementation of state-based initiative, and receive coaching/support during years 2 and 3; 6) Receive coaching and technical assistance to implement priority areas during years 1-4; 7) Participate in sustainability planning during year 4.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in Statewide Capacity Assessment Scores for Lung Cancer Screening Implementation and Sustainability Capacity | Up to 3 Years | Statewide capacity will be assessed using the State Team Assessment (STA) and Coalition Assessment (CA) instruments. Higher scores indicate greater capacity to implement an sustain lung cancer screening activities. |
