Abstract

Health care institutions can no longer treat only the sequelae of tobacco use. Smoking-cessation programs must be instituted to meet health promotion and education goals developed on admission for all patients. Leading authorities, such as the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, now include tobacco-cessation counseling as quality performance measures. This article discusses successful strategies that health care professionals have used at St. Joseph's/Candler Health System in Savannah, Georgia, to meet these standards.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
