What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of an electronic visit (e-visit) designed to assist individuals in quitting smoking. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive the e-visit, which includes a questionnaire about their smoking habits and preferences for cessation medications, or to a control group receiving standard care. The study will track participants over 24 weeks, collecting data through questionnaires and breath samples at four different time points. The e-visit may lead to a prescription for smoking cessation medication, although taking medication is not mandatory.
