Quitting tobacco can be hard, really hard. It's likely that you, or someone you know, has tried to quit before. Here are the facts: Less than 1 out of 10 smokers who try to quit without medications or other help succeed.¹ Yet, nearly half of the people who used both QuitlineNC and Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT), like patches and gum, will successfully quit.² Most Blue Cross NC members can get free NRT by enrolling in the 4-call QuitlineNC program. Many Blue Cross NC health plans have 100% coverage of tobacco cessation prescriptions. Contact Blue Cross NC to learn more.
