Stop Smoking
The CCG no longer directly funds stop smoking services (see letter sent to all practices) as they are the responsibility of public health services.
The services available depend on the local authority in which the patient lives.
City of York Council does not support the prescribing through GP practices of any products that support stopping smoking.
North Yorkshire County Council does currently support the prescribing by GPs of a limited list of products which is detailed in the letter below.
