Peoples Health and Smoking Cessation Trust Fighting Cigarette Smoking Together

Smoking Cessation Trust ("SCT") recently entered into an agreement with Peoples Health ("PHN"), one of Louisiana's largest Medicare HMO's, to promote the benefits available through the Smoking Cessation Trust to PHN's members who began smoking cigarettes prior to September 1st, 1988.  "We are counting on the cooperation of the leaders in healthcare and Louisiana's leading health plans, like Peoples Health, to help reach the more than 200,000 Louisiana residents who can qualify as Scott Class members and through the Smoking Cessation Trust receive FREE medical services, counseling, phone coaching, and pharmaceuticals to help them quit smoking cigarettes", said Mike Rogers, CEO of SCT Management Services, L3C, the management company administering the business of the Smoking Cessation Trust.

PHN's leadership and staff are committed to helping their members quit smoking cigarettes and are actively working with SCT to build program components that will work together with PHN's existing health plan administration to effectively reach out to their 50,000+ Medicare Advantage members.  For more information on the Smoking Cessation Trust cessation program, visit www.SmokeFreeLA.org or call 504-529-5665 or toll free 855-259-6346.
