Every health care provider knows how frustrating it is to watch healthy patients become smokers. Now, North Carolina is doing something about it with a new, improved Quitline. We're confident that your patients can warm up to cold turkey with a little help from Quitline NC, and stay tobacco-free
for good.

The improved Quitline NC offers:

  • Trained cessation coaches, available 8 a.m. to midnight, 7 days a week
  • Proactive coaches who can initiate calls to patients who are ready to quit
  • A new fax referral service that speeds up the process

Using the new Quitline NC fax referral service is easy. Just follow these steps:

  1. Complete the brief overview of the 5 A's of cessation support to learn how you can help your patients become tobacco-free. This takes about 4 minutes.
  2. Download and fill out the fax referral form on this Web site

That's it! After you perform those steps, you can start referring qualified patients immediately.

Quitline NC is:
