Cost
of Treatment Study—Wisconsin
This study, a Cost of Treatment study, examines
the awareness, use, and cost of insurance coverage for tobacco cessation
treatment among Wisconsin state employees and retirees. It is a three-year
observational study in which 16 of the 17 health insurance carriers
that serve state employees agreed to participate. This new insurance
coverage for tobacco cessation treatment became available on Jan. 1,
2001. This study collects awareness, use and cost data for the first
three years of that benefit's availability. Data on the Wisconsin state
employees’ self-reported use of the new smoking cessation benefit
has been collected and analysis is underway.
