Brief summary
The purpose of the study is to see if vascular physicians (your provider) using a combination of proven smoking cessation tools in an organized way can help vascular patients quit smoking better than usual. The doctors where you are being treated have been chosen to either provide: the combination therapy of giving you advice, considering prescribing medications to help you quit smoking, and referring you to a phone quitline, or to continue their usual smoking cessation practices (which may include all, some, or none of the treatments above).
Interventions
Physician advice to stop smoking, referral to state Quitline, and physician considers prescribing nicotine replacement therapy.
