Education

When you see patients, take these 3 easy steps to help them become tobacco free. It takes less than 3 minutes to

• Ask every patient at each encounter about his or her tobacco use and document their status.
• Advise every tobacco user to quit. Use a clear, strong, and personalized message about the benefits of quitting.
• Connect patients who want to change their tobacco use to the Quitline. We work with patients at any step of their quit journey. When providers make the connection, patients are 3-11 times more likely to enroll in the program.

The Quitline commercial tobacco cessation program uses clinically proven methods to achieve some of the highest quit rates in the country. We help more than 450 people a day in their journey to quit tobacco. With a 37 percent responder quit rate for those who use coaching and nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and a 90 percent participant satisfaction rate, we are confident in our ability to help your patients live tobacco free.
