National Jewish Health is a non-sectarian, non-profit academic medical center that has been the leading respiratory hospital in the nation for the last 118 years. From its beginnings in 1899, our physicians and scientists have focused on treatment and prevention of the leading public health issues of the day. Our wellness program continues our heritage by addressing the #1 cause of preventable illness and death today – tobacco use.
Effective tobacco cessation requires permanent changes to unhealthy behavior patterns. National Jewish Health has been a leader in guiding healthy behavior change since the mid-1990's when we launched one of the first disease management programs for asthma. Each year, we help tens of thousands of people across the nation improve their health through our QuitLogix® tobacco cessation program. All proceeds from our wellness program are reinvested into medical and scientific research at National Jewish Health.
