Abstract
Lung cancer screening (LCS) by low-dose CT imaging reduces lung cancer mortality and is covered by Medicare, yet adherence to screening for eligible Medicare beneficiaries is low. Medicare requires a shared decision-making (SDM) visit before the initial LCS, with a stated goal of promoting adherence to annual screening, but it is unknown whether these visits improve adherence over time.
