Quitlines can benefit greatly from the increased interest in quitting that occurs during policy change and can collaborate with other tobacco control entities to increase quitline reach. This section includes resources that address how to best maximize the benefit of cessation-related policy changes such as the implementation of smoke-free laws, tobacco tax increases and graphic health warnings (tobacco warning labels). Also included are resources related to Medicaid, Medicare and health insurance policies that impact quitlines.
