WebMD Health Services Webinar Series
A Quitter Never Wins Except When it Comes to Smoking

Discover the strategies for sustainable smoking cessation programs.

Cigarette smoking costs the U.S. more than $193 billion annually in healthcare costs and lost productivity. It's no surprise that many employers and health plans are developing tobacco cessation programs – but while 70%1 of smokers say they want to quit, doing so long-term is very difficult.

Join WebMD to examine effective, sustainable approaches to tobacco cessation that result in sustained behavior change. In our upcoming webinar, we'll:

• Analyze the health and cost risks of smoking and the challenges of quitting and staying quit
• Learn about physical, psychological and behavioral strategies for individuals at varying stages of readiness to change
• Discuss the key components of a successful tobacco change program including coaching, nicotine replacement therapy, and integrated online resources
