What closing the gap would mean
If screening in these counties rose from 19.2% to 24.2%, five points above today, about 610 to 940 more people would be screened each year.
In the National Lung Screening Trial, low-dose CT screening lowered lung cancer deaths by 20% compared with chest X-ray. Today about 67% of lung cancers here are found at a late stage.

Screening at Hannibal Regional Healthcare System today
Clinicians at Hannibal Regional Healthcare System locations billed 12 low-dose CT lung screening reads to Medicare fee-for-service in 2024. Including Medicare Advantage and other insurers, we estimate about 20 to 50 screenings a year.
Most adults who qualify see a primary care clinician every year. We count 120 primary care clinicians, 1 pulmonologists and 2 thoracic surgeons practicing at Hannibal Regional Healthcare System locations. A 20 pack-year smoking history is often missing from structured EHR fields, so many eligible patients are never flagged.
CMS Medicare Physician and Other Practitioners 2024 (CPT 71271); clinicians matched to Hannibal Regional Healthcare System by practice address using the AHRQ Compendium of U.S. Health Systems 2023, so reads billed by outside radiology groups are not included. The all-payer estimate scales Medicare fee-for-service by the local Medicare Advantage share (36%, CMS) and, at the high end, by the share of eligible adults under 65 (61%).
