UCD (CA Quits)

About This Partner/Organization

The long-term objective for this “CA Quits” project is to advance tobacco cessation

treatment for all Californians through capacity building and collaboration with safety net

providers, Medicaid managed care plans, and county partner resources. This 5-year

project is an expansion of an initial 1-year “CA Quits” project (PI: Dr. Elisa Tong) to start

building statewide learning collaboratives on tobacco cessation treatment with safety net

hospital clinics participating in the California Department of Health Care Services’

Medicaid waiver program called PRIME (Public Hospital Redesign & Incentives in

Medi-Cal).
