The modest goal of this study is to replicate the behavioral outcomes of the opt out MUSC-Tobacco Treatment Program in the following three patient groups: 1) psychiatric inpatients housed in the Institute of Psychiatry (IOP) in Charleston; 2) non-IOP patients seen in Charleston; and 3) patients seen in the other four MUSC affiliated hospitals combined (i.e., Chester, Florence, Lancaster, and Marion). The aims and the design/methods utilized for evaluation will be the same for each of the three patient groups.
