About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to promote lung cancer screening (LCS) uptake among Hispanic current and former smokers. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* What barriers do current and former Hispanic smokers face in the identification and documentation of their smoking status? * How can digital delivery of an educational video promote LCS uptake among current and former Hispanic smokers?

Participants will receive an educational video about lung cancer screening and complete brief, self-reported surveys afterwards.
