Smoking and Tobacco Cessation
If you smoke, use tobacco products or vape, quitting is an essential step toward better health. Each of our medical plan providers offers support for smoking and tobacco cessation including free nicotine replacement therapy. If you are not enrolled in one of Johns Hopkins health insurance plans, you still have free smoking and tobacco cessation support through a national network of tobacco cessation quitlines.
