The many Medicaid resources included in this section provide basic background information to assist those with limited knowledge about how Medicaid works and to help quitlines work most effectively to increase cessation coverage and "make the case” for quitline reimbursement. These Medicaid resources provide important information related to funding and sustainability and serving priority populations given the Medicaid population often needs additional outreach, promotions and attention to ensure optimal service by quitlines. Key resources include the Medicaid Resource Repository and the Medicaid Toolbox.

The purpose of this case study is to explore and briefly describe how four states involved in NAQC’s Public Private (cost-sharing) Partnership Initiative (Indiana, Missouri, New Hampshire, and North Carolina) leveraged their participation in CDC’s 6|18 Initiative to advance Medicaid partnership goals.
2019 - Using Triage Systems Link  [ more ] [ hide ]		Administration	9/29/2024
Triaging callers to more comprehensive cessation services available through Medicaid or other insurers has increased the appeal of implementing triage programs. However, while the concept of triage is attractive to state quitlines due to its potential benefits of expanding access to cessation services, implementing a triage program is not an easy task and may not be feasible for all quitlines. NAQC sought to learn more about the types of triage programs that exist, the intended goals of those programs, how the programs operate, program outcomes and any lessons learned. A workgroup comprised of state quitlines, service providers and funders was established and charged with sharing their state’s experience with triage programs and lessons learned. This new report outlines the key findings of the workgroup’s discussions and presents next steps for NAQC and the quitline community to consider.
2016-Advance Cessation Coverage among PPP Link  [ more ] [ hide ]		Administration	9/30/2024
This report highlights many of the key successes, opportunities and challenges in working with employers, commercial insurers and local and state governments to improve cessation coverage. Real examples and strategies from states of every size demonstrate that partnering with public and private insurers is doable and can increase access to evidence-based cessation services. By sharing promising approaches to expanding coverage, states can learn from each other and help build a foundation of knowledge nationwide. The report ends with a summary of key elements for success.
