Integrate the National Cancer Screen Register into your practice. Support early detection of lung cancer for your patients.

The National Lung Cancer Screening Program is now live- a groundbreaking national initiative designed to detect lung cancer early and save lives. As the leading cause of cancer death in Australia, the Program aims to change that by taking a proactive approach to early detection of lung cancer.

Hosted by the Australian Government and Lung Foundation Australia, this free CPD-accredited webinar provides primary care professionals with the knowledge and tools to implement the Program effectively in clinical settings. It will offer step-by-step guidance on integrating the National Cancer Screening Register (NCSR) into practice, using key program forms, to support eligible patients through the screening pathway.

Healthcare professionals will learn: 

  1. How to access and use the NCSR, including eligibility and enrolment, participant management, referrals, and diagnosis forms
  2. The role of general practitioners and nurse practitioners and how they appropriately use the low-dose CT scan request form
  3. How to incorporate the NCSR into clinical workflows.
