About this trial
Aim 1: Culturally adapt the TELESCOPE intervention for Hispanics. Using iterative qualitative feedback from a study-specific Community Advisory Board, focus groups, and interviews with community members, the investigators will culturally adapt the TELESCOPE intervention for Hispanics at high risk for lung cancer.
Aim 2: Assess the feasibility, acceptability, and implementation potential of the culturally adapted TELESCOPE intervention delivered by bilingual patient navigators for Hispanics. Hypothesis 1: The investigators expect a recruitment rate of ≥60%, ≥90% of Hispanic participants will complete the 1-week follow-up assessments, ≥80% of the key intervention components will be delivered with 80% fidelity by the patient navigators, and ≥90% of participants and clinicians will agree or completely agree that the intervention was feasible and acceptable.
Aim 3: Explore the impact of a culturally adapted TELESCOPE intervention delivered by bilingual patient navigators vs enhanced usual care (EUC) on the initial uptake of low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) and quality of the shared decision-making (SDM) process. Hypothesis 2: The investigators expect that an adapted TELESCOPE intervention will result in higher uptake of LDCT and higher SDM quality for lung cancer screening (LCS) compared to EUC.
