NCT04071795

Brief Summary

This study will use a scientifically robust, mixed-methods, two-arm cluster-randomized study design. Investigators will implement a tobacco use clinical reminder for outpatient psychiatrists practicing at the VA New York Harbor Healthcare System (N = 20). Half of the psychiatrists will receive a reminder that encourages the psychiatrist to offer cessation medications and referral to cessation counseling to patients interested in quitting (Opt-In Reminder). The other half will receive a clinical reminder that includes a standing nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) order and a referral to cessation counseling that will automatically generate unless the provider actively opts-out (Opt-Out Reminder). Prior to implementation of the reminders, psychiatrists in both arms will receive a one-hour training on tobacco treatment and individual education outreach to demonstrate the clinical reminder and answer questions (academic detailing).
