Tobacco Cessation Benefits Enhanced

Presbyterian has enhanced its tobacco cessation benefits for members with full medical coverage (members enrolled on prescription coverage only plans are not eligible for participation).

As of November 1, 2006, the Tobacco Quit Line became available to all its members.

Members who enroll in the Quit Line program will receive up to five telephonic counseling sessions with specially trained counselors who will guide them through the quitting process.

As an incentive to enroll in and complete the program, the Quit Line will provide a predetermined supply of nicotine replacement therapy products to members who qualify.

Additional information and documents may be found under the files below. Should you have additional questions, you may call the Presbyterian Tobacco Quit Line at 1-888-840-5445.
