QuitWorks-RI
QuitWorks-RI helps support patients of Healthcare, Behavioral Health, and Mental Health Providers.
We can help your patients to:
- Quit cigarette smoking, vaping nicotine, and other tobacco use—using safe and effective services.
- Connect with a Tobacco Treatment Specialist over the phone or by online chat day or night, seven days a week.
- Get free nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) gum, patches or lozenges mailed direct to their home while supplies last.
How it works
Anyone ages 18+ who smokes cigarettes, uses e-cigarettes or vaping devices, or uses other tobacco products can access free services to treat nicotine addiction through a provider’s referral. Providers who refer patients are able to track their patients’ tobacco cessation progress to support their quit journey.
Women who are pregnant can get up to NINE free counseling session by phone, plus free support tools and referrals to more services in Rhode Island. They may also receive financial rewards for each completed coaching call.
Callers Ages 18+ Can Get free NRT Products to Step-Down Nicotine Dependence!
Free Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is available to patients ages 18+ in minimum two-week supplies of gum, patches, or lozenges, but only while supplies last. Some patients may receive more quantities at no extra charge, while supplies last. Refer patients today!
