Introduction: Indoor tanning is a major modifiable risk factor in the development of both melanontic and non-melanotic skin cancers. Investigation of behavior-altering interventions is an area of active research. As with other preventative measures, screening of high-risk populations can be an important aspect of a multimodality public health intervention. We sought to further the limited understanding of indoor tanning screening practices in the primary care setting.Methods: Physicians practicing within the scope of primary care in the northeast were surveyed in 2022 on practice patterns around frequency of indoor tanning screening, barriers encountered with implementing screening, and actions taken with a positive screen. Research methodology adhered to the Joanna Briggs Institute research study critical appraisal checklist.Results: Of 26 primary care physicians (PCPs), only 7.7% routinely screened for indoor tanning. Barriers identified included time limitations (76.9%) and prioritization of other health concerns (96.2%). All PCPs (100%) reacted to reports of indoor tanning with an intervention, most commonly counseling on the risks of indoor tanning (92.6%).Conclusions: Our data suggests that screening for indoor tanning use could be improved. We recommend the incorporation of a standardized screening question regarding indoor tanning in intake forms.
