Tobacco Cessation

The Utah Tobacco Quit Line, available online at waytoquit.org and by phone at 800-QUIT-NOW, gives free treatment to all Medicaid members who want to quit smoking. If you call the quit line, you will: 

• Be given a trained coach to help you quit smoking. 
• Get up to five private sessions with a coach. 
• Get a self-help book. 
• Learn how to help a friend or family member quit.
• Find out about free Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) (You must be 18 or older to get NRT). 
• The Quit Line is private with coaches that speak English and Spanish. Other languages are spoken, if needed. 

Phone coaching

is one of the best ways to help people quit smoking or chewing tobacco. You don’t need to find a ride or get childcare—just pick up the phone and call. 

We cover some smoking cessation products for Medicaid members. You can learn more about these products from your Quit Now coach. Talk to your doctor if you need a prescription. 

Medicaid has a free support program to help pregnant women stop smoking Please call 866-608-9422 for help getting these services.
