Summary
This study tests an online questionnaire (e-visit) to help people quit smoking. About 672 adults who smoke daily will be randomly assigned to receive the e-visit or not. The e-visit asks about smoking history and preferences, and may lead to a prescription for quit-smoking medication. Participants complete surveys and breath tests over 24 weeks.
