Research has shown that proactive tobacco cessation quitlines are effective in increasing quit rates 4-fold, compared to quitting with no counseling support. In Wisconsin, the state-funded Wisconsin Tobacco Quit Line has documented a quit rate of 22%, with an estimated 6700 individuals quitting as a result of receiving Quit Line services. Since its launch in 2001, the Wisconsin Tobacco Quit Line has assisted more than 36,000 callers. Until recently, quitline call volume has been highly dependent on paid media campaigns-an expensive, episodic, and often politically difficult strategy to fund at the state level. To foster and sustain quitline use and assist health care professionals in helping their patients successfully quit, the University of Wisconsin Center for Tobacco Research and Intervention (UW-CTRI) developed the "Fax to Quit" program in March 2003. The model involves close collaboration between UW-CTRI and health care delivery systems who train their staff and integrate a quitline referral system into their regular delivery of health care for smokers who are interested in having the quitline contact them. This paper examines the extent to which this approach has been adopted by health care providers in Wisconsin. The potential is for this to become a key component of an integrated tobacco dependence treatment.
研究表明，与没有咨询支持的戒烟相比，积极主动的戒烟热线能使戒烟成功率提高4倍。在威斯康星州，由州政府资助的威斯康星戒烟热线记录的戒烟成功率为22%，估计有6700人因接受戒烟热线服务而成功戒烟。自2001年开通以来，威斯康星戒烟热线已帮助超过36000名来电者。直到最近，戒烟热线的呼叫量高度依赖付费媒体宣传活动——这是一种昂贵、间歇性且在州一级往往在政治上难以资助的策略。为了促进和维持对戒烟热线的使用，并协助医疗保健专业人员帮助他们的患者成功戒烟，威斯康星大学烟草研究与干预中心（UW-CTRI）于2003年3月开发了“传真戒烟”项目。该模式涉及UW-CTRI与医疗保健服务系统之间的密切合作，这些系统培训其工作人员，并将戒烟热线转诊系统纳入其为有兴趣让戒烟热线联系他们的吸烟者提供的常规医疗保健服务中。本文研究了威斯康星州的医疗保健提供者采用这种方法的程度。其潜力在于成为综合烟草依赖治疗的关键组成部分。
