Economic Impact of Financial Incentives and Mailing Nicotine Patches to Help Medicaid Smokers Quit Smoking: A Cost–Benefit Analysis
2018, American Journal of Preventive MedicineCitation Excerpt :This perspective was used because the MIQS program was implemented by Medi-Cal to determine how to decrease smoking among its recipients. Benefits of smoking cessation were defined as the averted future healthcare expenditures due to quitting smoking, after adjusting for additional healthcare expenditures for quitters who live longer and experience normal aging-related costs.32–34 Costs of providing cessation services included intervention program costs (e.g., FIs and postage for mailing NP kits to participants’ homes) and cessation treatment costs (counseling, NPs, and other tobacco-cessation medications).
