Summary

The purpose of this research study is to examine the effectiveness of an intervention designed to reduce smoking in low income veterans within a regional United States Veterans Administration(VA) health care system. A proactive, personalized, coordinated system of care "Connect to Quit (CTQ)" is rooted in the Chronic Care Model. CTQ treats smoking as a chronic condition, like hypertension or diabetes, that requires long term treatment with appropriate combinations of behavioral therapy and pharmacotherapy. CTQ will be evaluated in the context of three (3) VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System (VAPHS) medical practices.
