Medicaid provider delivery of the 5A's for smoking cessation counseling.
Nicotine & Tobacco Research 2007 November
This paper assesses rates of the 5A's (ask, advise, assess, assist, and arrange) of brief provider counseling received by Medicaid-enrolled smokers and recent quitters and the differences in receipt of counseling as a function of age, gender, race, ethnicity, and health status. A random sample telephone survey was conducted among Medicaid-enrolled smokers and recent quitters in four geographic areas in the United States. Multivariate logistic regression models estimated the relationships between demographic characteristics and delivery of the 5A's. Less than 10% of Medicaid smokers and recent quitters reported receiving all 5A's. Medicaid providers delivered the ask, assess, and advise components of smoking cessation counseling to the majority of their patients who were smokers or recent quitters. However, they were much less likely to provide comprehensive counseling, with fewer than 25% of patients reporting receiving any assistance with quitting (i.e., a prescription for pharmacotherapy or referral to counseling) or arrangement of a follow-up visit or phone call. Receipt of the 5A's varied as a function of health status, race, and ethnicity. Medicaid needs to (a) increase provider delivery of the full spectrum of counseling interventions recommended for smoking cessation and (b) extend provider outreach to the demographic groups that receive the lowest rates of counseling.
