New! Get Screened California: Lung Cancer Screening 2022 Environmental Scan

The ACS/CDOC ad-hoc cancer screening workgroup conducted a lung cancer screening environmental scan in 2022.  The purpose of this environmental scan was to summarize the current state of lung cancer screening in California, identify barriers and opportunities for improving lung cancer screening, and recommend strategies for improving screening uptake. This report is an initial assessment of available lung cancer and lung cancer screening data in California and of the opinions and experiences of select key California stakeholders. This is not a comprehensive summary of the lung cancer screening activities underway in the state. ACS and CDOC intend to disseminate this information to inspire action by key stakeholder groups, and are using the information collected to help determine potential roles for ACS and CDOC to play to advance lung cancer screening in California.
