Survey to NYSDA Members from the New York State Quitline - May 2026

The New York State Quitline is a service supported by the New York State Department of Health and based at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo, N.Y. The New York State Quitline encourages those who use commercial tobacco and electronic/vape products to talk with their healthcare professionals and access available Medicaid or health insurance benefits for medication support. All health care professionals can assist patients in accessing the New York State Quitline’s free services, including personal coaching, by calling 1-866-NY-QUITS (1-866-697-8487) or visiting NYSmokeFree.com to reach a specialist through chat or text. The website also offers an option to order free nicotine replacement therapy medications as well as registration for free text-support programs.
