Florida Lung Health Coalition

What Florida Lung Health Coalition does

Florida Lung Health Coalition is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization headquartered in Port St. Lucie, Florida, with a privacy/administrative address in Los Angeles. The organization's core function is coordinating access to no-cost or low-cost lung cancer screening for high-risk populations, primarily through the "Healthy Lungs in Florida" program targeting Florida residents aged 50-80 with a 20+ pack-year smoking history who live near Jacksonville, Port St. Lucie, or Tampa Bay. It does not own imaging infrastructure; instead, it issues vouchers and routes qualified individuals to a network of imaging partner sites operated by GE HealthCare, HCA Florida Healthcare, RadNet, Radiology Imaging Associates, Precision Imaging Centers, Tower Imaging, and DRCTC.

The coalition's product surface centers on three pillars: (1) the Lung Cancer Screening Program, which provides Low-Dose CT screening at no cost; (2) the I.N.H.A.L.E. (Innovative New Hybrid Approaches to Lung Evaluation) program, which positions AI-enhanced image analysis as a differentiator for accuracy and participation; and (3) an Imaging Partner Network that functions as the distribution backbone. Supporting services include a Medical Release Authorization workflow, a contact/information request service, and an annual symposium for education and donor engagement. The website infrastructure is operated by RadNet Management, Inc.

The business model is donation-driven: the organization accepts monetary contributions directed at screening patients rather than salaries or overhead, and is registered to solicit in Florida and Maryland. There is no commercial revenue from screenings, no pricing tiers for end users, and no disclosed venture or institutional funding. Customer segments split between high-risk individual beneficiaries (primary), healthcare/imaging partner organizations, and corporate sponsors/philanthropists. With 11-50 employees and no public revenue disclosure, operating scale appears modest, and growth depends on donor pipeline, partner network expansion, and execution against a stated 2030 goal of raising U.S. lung cancer screening rates to 30%.
