Tobacco Cessation Programs
Quitting using tobacco can be a tough challenge. But if you want to quit, we’re here to help you. At Belk, we offer comprehensive smoking cessation programs to help get you on the road to wellness.
If you’re enrolled in a Belk medical plan, you have access to two tobacco cessation programs at no cost to you through BCBS NC (your medical provider) and Express Scripts (your prescription drug provider).
QuitlineNC through BCBS NC
With QuitlineNC, you can receive four free telephone counseling sessions with highly trained coaches. Coaches are available 24/7, and you’ll receive a certificate of completion after four completed calls with a quit coach.
Members who are pregnant or with certain behavioral health conditions are eligible for more than four sessions at no extra cost.
You can also receive up to 12 weeks of Nicotine Replacement Therapy – covered at no cost to you and mailed directly to your home. You must schedule a call with a QuitlineNC Coach and enroll in the multi-call program to receive the medication.
To contact a coach or for more information, call 1-844-862-7848 (844-8NCQUIT).
If You Live Outside of North Carolina

Express Scripts Smoking Cessation Program
Regardless of the state in which you live, if you’re 18 years of age or older and are enrolled in a Belk medical plan, you have access to tobacco cessation medications through Express Scripts at no cost to you.
