In the United States, smoking causes preventable diseases, including lung cancer, which is the leading cause of cancer deaths. Improving smoking cessation rates is important to decrease lung cancer deaths. Health care visits with a discussion about lung cancer screening (LCS) may help in increasing prevalence of smoking cessation. Importantly, insurers now require clinicians to have a shared decision-making discussion with patients that includes discussion of smoking abstinence before they can receive an LCS scan (i.e., a low-dose computed tomography scan). This discussion may represent a unique opportunity to encourage smoking cessation since it may prompt positive smoking behavior change. However, it is less known whether, and to what extent, factors are important for current smoking status or improving smoking cessation before and within the LCS decision-making discussion. This three-paper dissertation aims to understand patterns of successful smoking cessation focusing on socioeconomic, sociodemographic, and psychosocial factors among patients offered LCS at three sites: VA Portland Health Care System, VA Minneapolis Health Care System, and Duke University Medical Center. I utilize both quantitative and qualitative approaches to examine data from an existing longitudinal dataset compiled by the VA Portland Health Care System, which includes patient survey responses, electronic health records, and patient and clinician interviews.
