Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators propose a Type I hybrid effectiveness/implementation study to evaluate two population-based approaches for increasing use of Quitlines and text messaging at two VA sites. Specifically, the investigators will test the default bias, examining whether an opt-out approach to referral is more effective than an opt-in approach. The investigators will randomly assign teams to either an opt-out or opt-in approach to referring smokers to treatment. In the opt-out approach, the default is that everyone is referred to treatment unless they actively choose not to be. In the opt-in approach, people are offered treatment but must actively choose to enroll in it.


Clinical Trial Description

This project is a Type 1 hybrid effectiveness/implementation study to evaluate two population-based approaches for increasing use of specific evidence-based approaches for behavioral tobacco dependence treatment, Quitlines and text messaging, at the Manhattan and Brooklyn campuses of the VA New York Harbor Healthcare System (NYHHS). The project will test the default bias, examining whether an opt-out approach to referral is more effective than an opt-in approach. Researchers will randomly assign clinical care teams at each VA campus to either an opt-out or an opt-in approach to referring smokers to treatment. In the opt-out approach, the default is that everyone is referred to treatment unless they actively choose not to be. In the opt-in approach, people are offered treatment but must actively choose to enroll in it. ;
