Participants will be surveyed at baseline and at one-week after the scheduled primary care office visit. If a participant is a current smoker then they are offered and navigated to evidence-based smoking cessation. If the participant is interested in screening, an LDCT is ordered. Support for screening, diagnostic testing and oncology care will be provided as needed from the Nurse Navigators.
