Amazing work being done by @LorettaEMD @cityofhope @CityofHopeSurg on lung cancer screening disparities utilizing AI modelling methods and navigators to improve adherence in underserved populations in Orange County, a very diverse area!! @ACSCAN @ACSCANCA @AmericanCancer

Asian Americans had highest Medicaid insurance rates in our lung surgery patients. Also of note, medicaid insurance had higher return to 30D to ED visits after lung surgery. We have things we can work on! @KPMedSchool @KPDOR @UCSF_EastBay @kcbanks mdpi.com/2673-3986/6/2/…
