If you have never smoked

If you have never smoked and don’t believe you should have received an invitation:

  1. Contact the Targeted Lung Health Check Service to speak to them about the invitation. They will be able to advise you.
  2. If, after speaking to the Targeted Lung Health Check Service, you still don’t believe you should have received an invite to a Lung Health Check, contact your GP to ask that they review your patient record to check there is no smoking history recorded in it.
