Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: Enhanced Usual Care plus Financial Incentives plus Mobile Health ApplicationActive Control3 Interventions
Participants receive all aspects of Arm 3 plus an intervention to promote episodic future thinking (EFT), called FutureMe. EFT has been shown to reliably reduce discounting of the future. Patients will practice using EFT cues to envision the "future is now" between the time of enrollment and the quit date, and will then receive cues from the quit date through the end of the intervention period, 6 months later, unless they ask to stop receiving cues sooner.
Group II: Enhanced Usual Care plus Financial IncentivesActive Control2 Interventions
Participants receive all aspects of enhanced usual care plus an incentive plan in which they will be informed of their eligibility to earn $100, $200, and $300 if they submit negative tests for nicotine metabolites at 2 weeks, 3 month and 6 months following their quit date, respectively.
Group III: Basic Usual CareActive Control1 Intervention
Participants receive the usual care approach, Ask-Advise-Refer (AAR), which is a standard approach in which non-study clinicians ask smokers about their desire to quit smoking, advise them to quit, and provide informational resources such as hotlines, specialized clinics, or smoking cessation classes.
Group IV: Enhanced Usual CareActive Control1 Intervention
Participants receive the basic usual care of Ask-Advise-Refer as well as free access to nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) and/or reimbursement of up to $300 for any smoking cessation medications (varenicline/Chantix or bupropion/Zyban) prescribed by non-study clinicians.
