Abstract

Smoking is a major public health concern in Tamil Nadu, as it is in many parts of the world. It is a leading cause of preventable diseases and deaths, with a significant economic burden on healthcare systems and society as a whole. Recognizing the need to address this issue, the implementation of smoking cessation strategies at primary health care (PHC) settings has gained attention. Conducting a cost-effectiveness analysis in this context can help policymakers and healthcare providers make informed decisions about the allocation of resources for such interventions
