Tobacco Program Health Care Centers Training Assistance
The Department of Health and Social Services, Division of Public Health, Tobacco Prevention & Control Program, is soliciting proposals from qualified offerors to provide technical assistance to Tobacco Prevention and Control (TPC) program grantees receiving funds to support tobacco cessation interventions in health care settings throughout Alaska. The purpose of the tobacco cessation interventions grant program is to implement comprehensive tobacco cessation systems change within the health care setting under the guidelines of the U.S. Public Health Services Clinical Practice Guideline: Treating Tobacco Use and Dependence and, further, to design and implement sustainability plans intended to develop the grantees capacity to pursue Medicaid and third party insurer reimbursement for tobacco cessation services.
