Brief Summary
The Quit and Screen Project seeks to engage healthcare providers in helping adults who smoke to quit tobacco use, including menthol cigarettes and flavored cigars, and screen for lung cancer early as strategies to reduce multiple chronic diseases. The goal of this clinical trial is to test the feasibility and impact of the Quit and Screen Project alone versus the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training + the Quit and Screen Project training modules on changes in provider knowledge, attitudes, and behavioral intentions related to provider advice to quit smoking and referrals for low dose computed tomography among health care providers randomly assigned to each condition. Participants will complete the training modules and complete pre- and post-tests to assess these outcomes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (11)
Familiarity with treatment guidelines for tobacco and nicotine treatment
Familiarity with treatment guidelines was assessed using an modified question from the Healthcare Provider Survey published by Primary Care Development Corporation in 2008.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Weaver et al. 2012 Provider Attitudes and Perceptions about smoking cessation
These questions assessed providers perceptions about the benefits of smoking cessation and the benefits of providers advising patients to quit smoking.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Weaver et al. 2012 Provider Perceptions about provider barriers to providing smoking cessation interventions to patients
Perceptions about provider barriers to addressing smoking cessation with patient were assessed using modified questions from a questions published in Weaver et al. 2012, Carter-Harris et al. (2017), and Raz et al. 2019.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Provider Perceptions about patient barriers to smoking cessation
Perceptions about patient barriers to smoking cessation were assessed using modified questions from a questions published in Weaver et al. 2012, Carter-Harris et al. (2017), and Raz et al. 2019.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Behavioral intentions to screen and advise patients about smoking cessation
A set of questions based on the Theory of Planned Behavior assessed provider's intention to screen patients for tobacco use and provide them interventions and referrals for treatment.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Familiarity with lung cancer screening guidelines
Familiarity with treatment guidelines was assessed using an modified question from the Healthcare Provider Survey published by Primary Care Development Corporation in 2008.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Knowledge about low dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening
Familiarity with treatment guidelines was assessed using an modified question from the questions published by Kota et al. 2022, Carter-Bawa et al. 2022, and the National Cancer Institute National Survey of Primary Care Physicians' Recommendations \& Practices for Breast, Cervical, Lung, \& Colorectal Cancer Screening.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Perceptions about shared decision-making for low dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening
Questions were modified from the questions published by Forcino et al. in 2018.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Perceptions about provider barriers to referring patients to low dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening
Questions were modified from questions published by Coughlin et al. 2020.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Provider Perceptions about patient barriers to get screened for lung cancer
Perceptions about patient barriers to getting screened for lung cancer were assessed using modified questions from a questions published in Weaver et al. 2012, Carter-Harris et al. (2017), and Raz et al. 2019.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Behavioral intentions to advise patients to get screened for lung cancer via low dose computed tomography
A set of questions based on the Theory of Planned Behavior assessed provider's intention to advise patients who smoke to get screened for lung cancer via low dose computed tomography.
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Characteristics of enrolled healthcare providers
This is pre-post design. This outcome will be measured during the pre-test immediately before participants complete the 30-60 minute online training.
Retention: Percent of providers complete the training after enrolling
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Adherence to completing training modules: Percent of modules completed
This is pre-post design where participants will complete a pre-test immediately before completing a 30-60 minute online training and then a post-test immediately after completing training.
Preferences regarding training
This is pre-post design. This outcome will be measured during the post-test immediately after they complete the 30-60 minute online training.
Satisfaction with training
This is pre-post design. This outcome will be measured during the post-test immediately after they complete the 30-60 minute online training.
Study Arms (2)
Quit and Screen Project training alone
EXPERIMENTALProviders in this arm will only complete the Quit and Screen Project training. This online course will be developed for healthcare providers and will fill gaps in knowledge and attitudes toward lung cancer screening and smoking not covered by the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training .
Quit and Screen Project training + G02 Lung Cancer Screening training
EXPERIMENTALIn this arm, providers will complete the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training and the Quit and Screen Project training. The Quit and Screen Project training is an online course being developed to fill gaps in knowledge and attitudes toward lung cancer screening and smoking not covered by the G02 Lung Cancer Screening training.
Interventions
The G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training is an online course that covers disparities in lung cancer and smoking, patient barriers to lung cancer screening, and provider resources for addressing common barriers.
This online course will be developed for healthcare providers and will fill gaps in knowledge and attitudes toward lung cancer screening and smoking not covered by the G02 (Global Knowledge Center for Lung Cancer) Lung Cancer Screening training.
