MaineCare Members and Tobacco Treatment Benefits
Maine QuitLink offers MaineCare members free tools, support, and medications to make quitting tobacco easier
People with lower incomes and enrolled in MaineCare have higher smoking rates and more exposure to secondhand smoke than the general population. This is made worse by tobacco ads targeted at low-income neighborhoods.
MaineCare Benefits
All Maine residents, including MaineCare members, get free help to quit tobacco through Maine QuitLink. Through your MaineCare benefit, you can access additional quit medications and support.
Talk to your provider for help accessing these additional benefits or Contact Maine Care for more information.
