The Program

  • The Fax-to-Quit program offers healthcare providers a quick and efficient way to refer their patients to an evidence-based cessation service: The Colorado QuitLine.
  • Healthcare providers should refer any patient who indicates a readiness to quit in the next 30 days.
  • The Colorado QuitLine offers confidential tobacco cessation coaching and free nicotine patches to those medically eligible.

How It Works

  • Healthcare providers fax the completed QuitLine Fax-to-Quit referral form to 1-800-261-6259.
  • Patients receive a call from the QuitLine to enroll them in the program and schedule up to five personalized behavioral coaching sessions.
  • Patients who are medically eligible receive a free supply of nicotine replacement therapy by mail.
  • Information about the patient’s enrollment status is faxed back to the healthcare provider.
