Tobacco Cessation FAQ
How does this website work?
Find your agency on the drop-down box on this page. When you click on your agency, you will be taken to an online form to enroll in a tobacco cessation program. After you complete the form, you will receive a phone call from our interviewers to schedule an interview/assessment.
If you cannot find your agency in the drop-down box, you should click on the “Office of Personnel Management” tobacco cessation link, which will take you to a site that explains other cessation program options that are covered by health insurance plans for Federal employees.
How do tobacco cessation programs work?
They combine nicotine replacement therapy (patches, lozenges, or gum) with one-on-one support through counselors or a telephone quitline.
How long do programs last?
Programs operated by FOH start with at least a four-week supply of patches, lozenges, or gum, plus access to counselors or a quitline. Our interviewers will follow up to check on your progress. You may be asked to complete an online survey 6 months after your quit date. Other programs covered by Federal health insurance plans may vary somewhat.
Is the process confidential?
Yes. Your tobacco cessation efforts are protected under the Federal Privacy Act.
Is there a penalty if I try a cessation program and fail to quit?
No. It’s understood that it’s not easy to stop using tobacco, and that it may actually take several attempts. Your agency will decide how many attempts at cessation you will be allowed per year.
How does the one-on-one support work?
Depending upon the program you use, you will have access to either personal counseling or a telephone quitline.

Read below to learn more about how the tobacco cessation program works at your agency.
Here’s how the program works:
1) Interview
Once you have completed the Tobacco Cessation Sign-Up Form, an FOH representative will contact you for an initial interview, which will take about 30 minutes and will focus on the details of your tobacco history. The FOH representative will assist you in deciding the nicotine replacement product (NRT) that is best for you. If an interviewer does not call you within 1 week of submitting your form, please call Lisa House at (404) 562-7950 ext 159.
2) Quit Plan
The main purpose of the initial interview is to help you formulate a quit plan. To assist you with this plan, the FOH representative will provide you with an “FOH Tobacco Cessation Quit Plan Form,” which you will be asked to complete during your interview. Expect to make changes to your plan during your quit effort. For example, you may identify difficult situations that were not covered adequately when you first wrote the plan. Nicotine patches, gum, or lozenges help control withdrawal symptoms; having a written plan will also help your quit effort.
3) NRT Products
Once your interview has been completed, FOH will mail the NRT to you. You will receive one of the following NRT products: nicotine skin patches, nicotine gum, or lozenges depending on the product selected with your quit plan. In addition, you will be sent a handbook covering specific topics such as how to break habits and routines, what to do if there is another smoker in your household, etc.
4) Your Responsibilities Related to NRT
USACE provides an initial four-week supply of NRT. Depending on the product, the usual time to use patches, gum, or lozenges is 8 to12 weeks. Once you start your quit effort, you will no longer be purchasing cigarettes. We encourage you to save your cigarette money during the period that your employer is paying for your NRT so that you can purchase the additional NRT that you will need. Follow the directions that come with the product and use it for the full 8 to12 weeks.
5) Follow Up
Six months after your quit date, FOH will follow up to see how you are doing with your tobacco cessations efforts.
