The USPSTF and CMS 15 year quit date restriction is not supported by evidence and creates an incentive to resume smoking to maintain eligibility for lung cancer screening. That is why the guidelines from NCCN abandoned this limitation several years ago National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) ACS National Lung Cancer Roundtable
We're joining Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center to provide screenings for National Lung Cancer Screening Day on 11/11. If you are between 50-80 years old, currently smoke or have quit in the past 15 years, or have at least a 20 pack-year smoking history, you may be eligible. bit.ly/3SrORdj
