Health Improvement and Self-Care
HMSA’s health improvement programs help raise our members’ awareness
of their individual health status and encourage them to make smart health decisions.
Ready, Set, Quit!
HMSA’s personalized smoking cessation program helps members become smoke-free
through supportive telephone counseling, information, and strategies to help them
kick the habit. In 2009, 344 members enrolled in the Ready, Set, Quit! program.
Of the members who have been in the program for more than a year, 20 percent have
remained smoke-free for 12 months or more.
