I just learned that @HouseCommerce is voting on H.R. 4534, the Women and Lung Cancer Research and Preventive Services Act. Passing this bill is a critical step toward filling our knowledge gap in lung cancer. #saveherlungs #lcsm bit.ly/3OG2OS8

The stress & worry waiting for image results is visceral. Not sleeping & can't think of anything else for days because every time we go for a scan we feel like we're walking the green mile. May not be rationale, but it's real #PATIENTCENTERED care includes emotional well being
🙏🙏🙏 So important for patients with #cancer as well It's highly anxiety inducing to wait for imaging results And perhaps even worse, to read the results in EHR & then have to wait for your doc appointment. Though it's a bit of a different topic @LeciaSequist @jillfeldman4

BREAST, COLON, PROSTATE, OVARIAN, AND SKIN CANCERS GET ALL THE ATTENTION AND FUNDING BUT DID YOU KNOW THAT LUNG CANCER KILLS MORE PEOPLE THAN ALL OF THOSE COMBINED AND WE HAVE A FREE, PAINLESS SCREENING TEST FOR IT BUT ONLY ABOUT 5% OF ELIGIBLE AMERICANS GET SCREENED #LCSM

THIS IS URGENT! Increased lung cancer research funding made it through the House, and NOW, it's time to let the Senate know lung cancer research deserves fair funding. Research saves lives. ACT NOW!! lungcan.org/act/ #LUNGCANCERAWARENESS #60M4LUNGCANCER #ACTNOW

“Cost”, ? insurance coverage, and lack of patient awareness seem to be low hurdles to jump in order to increase uptake of lung cancer screening. With all due respect, it is well past time that #PrimaryCare physicians get past these barriers. @iaslc and others can help. #lcsm
#LungCancer screening in the US: primary care physicians’ knowledge, practices and perceived barriers. The survey by Kota et al. indicated cost, insurance and awareness as top barriers. ow.ly/pkOB50IRwQt #JTOCRR #LCSM #LDCT @JTOonline @OncologyAdvance
