The study will target individuals in the Penn Medicine healthcare system residing in Philadelphia with an upcoming or missed follow-up screening or orders placed but who have not yet scheduled their screenings by offering free transportation coordination to and from the appointment. The study team will also offer to connect those with placed but unscheduled low dose CT orders to connect with Penn Medicine's scheduling staff.
