Enhanced E-cigarette Coaching (EEC)
The EEC intervention calls will include assessment of e-cigarette use and discussion about how and why e-cigarettes are being used on every call. In addition to the standard quitline cessation program, the enhanced program will include education (via quit coaches and two tailored quit guides), behavioral support tailored to dual users, and shared decision making strategies to address how and why FDA-approved quitting aids and ENDS are being used and to develop an integrated quit plan based on callers' decisions.

Quitline Treatment as Usual (TAU)
The standard tobacco quitline program is a proactive 5-call intervention grounded in social cognitive theory and the U.S. Public Health Service clinical practices guidelines for treating tobacco use and dependence. All enrollees in the study are eligible for 2-8 weeks of nicotine replacement therapy (depending on their standard quitline benefit offering), if they medically qualify and/or return a medical override letter from their doctor.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 3 months after baselinePopulation: Analysis focused on 3-month survey respondents (N=66).
In Phase 2, quit plan development experience will be compared for EEC and TAU participants. Quit plan development experience will be measured with an adapted version of the CollaboRATE (not an abbreviation) shared decision making assessment measure. The adapted CollaboRATE measure included 3 questions (on a 5-point scale from "no effort (0)" to "every effort was made (4)"): "How much effort was made to help you understand your options for quitting smoking?", "How much effort was made to listen to the things that matter most to you about your plan for quitting smoking?", and "How much effort was made to include what matters most to you in creating your plan for quitting smoking?". Higher total scores indicate greater utilization of a shared decision-making approach during quit plan development. Scale minimum equals 0 and maximum equals 12.

Responses to individual items will be described. To assess the relative risk of ENDS and cigarettes, the following question was asked, "Compared to cigarettes, how harmful are e-cigarettes to a person's health?" Answer responses included: less harmful, about the same, more harmful, and I prefer not to answer.
