Effect of gaining insurance coverage on smoking cessation in community health centers: a cohort study.
This study aimed to determine if uninsured community health center (CHC) patients who gain Medicaid coverage experience greater primary care utilization, receive more cessation medication orders, and achieve higher quit rates, compared to continuously uninsured smokers. It found that newly insured patients had increased odds of quit smoking status over 24 months of follow-up than those who remained uninsured.
