This phase IV trial examines the effectiveness of a multi-level smoking cessation program for high-risk women in rural communities. Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for cervical cancer in women. Rural primary care practices and providers often lack the electronic health record support to pre-identify smokers for services, as well as lack the necessary counseling training and access to comprehensive cessation programs. Implementing evidence-based smoking cessation programs in rural Appalachia may decrease the rates of cigarette smoking and as a result decrease the rates of cervical cancer.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine the effectiveness of a core component of an integrated cervical cancer prevention program designed to help female smokers quit by standardizing clinical practice supports and protocols. (Service outcomes) II. Determine satisfaction with the multilevel intervention. (Client outcomes) III. Test the sustainability of the multilevel intervention via training of providers and staff on counseling and billing for evidence-based smoking cessation services. (Implementation outcomes)
OUTLINE:
IMPLEMENTATION OF TOBACCO-USER IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM: Clinics and systems develop and implement minimally required electronic tracking and reporting systems for identification of smokers during months 1-12.
GROUP RANDOMIZED TRIAL: Providers and participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
ARM I (EARLY ARM): Providers undergo training over 60 minutes to explain the Break Free program and basics of quitting smoking during months 13-24. Female smokers interested in quitting in the next 6 months will be referred to an in-person counseling session at the clinic. Participants then receive 4 phone counseling over 15-20 minutes with a trained tobacco treatment specialist.
ARM II (DELAYED ARM): Female smokers receive usual care during months 13-24. Providers undergo training over 60 minutes to explain the Break Free program and basics of quitting smoking during months 25-36. Female smokers interested in quitting in the next 6 months will be referred to an in-person counseling session at the clinic. Participants then receive 4 phone counseling over 15-20 minutes with a trained tobacco treatment specialist.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Acceptability of intervention - delivery of AAC | This provider-level outcome includes self-reported changes in the delivery of the Ask, Advise, and Connect (AAC). | Up to 6 months |
| Acceptability of intervention - referral rate | This provider-level outcome includes the rate of referrals to the in-clinic smoking cessation counselor. | Up to 6 months |
| Fidelity to the intervention: counseling calls | Measured by asking 10% of randomly selected women questions about content of the phone counseling. | Day after phone counseling during the span of the intervention (one year) |
| Fidelity to the intervention: provider visits | Measured by self-administered, anonymous, post-provider visit surveys every other month by patients who were in the clinic for a visit during a one-week period. Patients will be asking whether the provider asked about tobacco use, if a smoker, advised the patient to quit, discussed cessation, and connected the smoker to counseling. | At time of in person visit for a one week span, every other month during the span of the intervention (one year) |
| Sustainability of the intervention: clinic continuation of Break Free | Measured by self-reported continuation of cessation counseling by clinic staff | During the span of the final phase of study (2 years) |
| Sustainability of the intervention: counseling sessions | Measured by the number of counseling sessions billed for overall | During the span of the final phase of study (2 years) |
