Implementing a Tobacco Assisted Referral Program in Dental Practices
The Assisted Referral approach was successfully integrated into routine dental care, was well received by patients, and resulted in increased patient satisfaction. Because free telephone-based tobacco counseling is now available nationwide, the approach may be a practical strategy for most dental-care settings
The effectiveness and cost effectiveness of telephone counselling and the nicotine patch in a state tobacco quitline
Offering free NRT and multisession telephone support within a state tobacco quitline led to higher quit rates, and similar costs per incremental quit, than less intensive protocols
The uninsured and Medicaid Oregon tobacco user experience in a real world, phone based cessation programme
The quit rates are similar to those reported in efficacy trials. The observed variation in quitting tobacco for respondents by number of calls completed and by insurance merits further investigation concentrating on increasing compliance with the call schedule, particularly for the uninsured
Developing and Testing New Smoking Measures for the Health Plan Employer Data and Information Set
OBJECTIVE: To develop and test items for the Health Plan Employee Data and Information Set (HEDIS) that assess delivery of the full range of provider-delivered tobacco interventions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The authors identified potential items via literature review; items were reviewed by national experts. Face validity of candidate items was tested in focus groups. The final survey was sent to a random sample of 1711 adult primary care patients…
Implementing tobacco interventions in the real world of managed care
Over the years we have been working to develop, test, and implement tobacco control interventions as a part of routine care within Kaiser Permanente. Most of our work has been in Kaiser Permanente's northwest division, based in Portland, Oregon, but we have also implemented similar approaches in several other divisions, including Ohio, Hawaii, and Georgia. I will first describe our general approach, which we call the TRAC model ("tobacco reductio…
Implementation and Effectiveness of a Brief Smoking-Cessation Intervention for Hospital Patients
OBJECTIVES: Previous research has documented that hospital-based smoking-cessation counseling is efficacious and cost-effective when delivered by research staff. This study evaluated the implementation and effectiveness of this intervention program when delivered by respiratory therapists chosen from the regular hospital staff. METHODS: A total of 1,173 hospitalized smokers were randomly assigned to either usual care or a stage-based bedside coun…
Cost-Effectiveness of a Hospital-Based Smoking Cessation Intervention
OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of a smoking cessation and relapse-prevention program for hospitalized adult smokers from the perspective of an implementing hospital. It is an economic analysis of a two-group, controlled clinical trial in two acute care hospitals owned by a large group-model health maintenance organization. The intervention included a 20-minute bedside counseling session with an experienced health counselo…
Take heart
OBJECTIVES. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the short-term effects of a low-intensity work-site heart disease risk reduction program using a matched pair design with work site as the unit of analysis. METHODS. Twenty-six heterogeneous work sites with between 125 and 750 employees were matched on key organization characteristics and then randomly assigned to early or delayed intervention conditions. Early intervention consisted of an 18-…
Mental health status as a predictor of morbidity and mortality
OBJECTIVES. This study sought to relate preexisting depression, worries, affect balance, and mental health symptoms to subsequent risk of morbidity and mortality. METHODS. A random sample of members of a health maintenance organization were interviewed at home in a 1970/71 survey. Baseline psychological measures from that survey were then related to 15-year mortality and first incidence of cancer, heart disease, hypertension, stroke, functional g…

A stop-smoking telephone help line that nobody called
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reach of a smoker's hotline that provided a variety of services to over 2100 health maintenance organization members. Formative evaluation procedures identified topics of concern, and repeated promotions advertised the service via multiple channels. Excluding a special giveaway promotion, an average of less than three calls per month were made during the 33 months of operation. To be cost-effective, s…
A Smoking-Cessation Intervention for Hospital Patients
Many patients attempt to stop smoking during hospitalization, but most relapse after discharge. This study developed and evaluated a brief smoking-cessation and relapse-prevention program for hospitalized smokers. All hospitalized smokers (n = 1,119) were identified by questionnaire at hospital admission and then received either usual care or usual care plus a hospital-based smoking-cessation intervention regardless of interest in stopping smokin…
