Veterans with serious mental illness (SMI) smoke tobacco products at triple the rate of Veterans without any mental illness and die 10-15 years earlier as a result. SMI Veterans who smoke want to quit and FDA-approved tobacco cessation medications are safe, effective, and readily available in VA. However, mental health providers are hesitant to treat smoking and just 11-18% of Veterans with SMI who smoke receive tobacco medication. External facilitation is an effective implementation strategy that can overcome barriers to integrating evidence-based treatment into routine clinical practice. In collaboration with local and operational partners, the proposed CDA-2 will evaluate and refine an external facilitation strategy to improve tobacco medication prescribing in VA SMI clinics. This proposal aligns with VA priorities to enhance timely access to care and improve Veteran outcomes.",[72,73],"Serious Mental Illness","Tobacco Use Disorder",[75,76,77,78,79,80,81,82],"veterans health services","mental health services","tobacco use disorder","delivery of health care, integrated","attitude of health personnel","qualitative research","implementation science","mental disorders","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-03-02",{"date":86,"type":87},"2026-03-06","ACTUAL",{"date":89,"type":66},"2026-10-01",{"date":91,"type":66},"2031-10-01",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
