NOTES: NRT = Nicotine Replacement Therapy, Weighted probit models with marginal effects shown, and standard errors clustered by state in parentheses. Models also include current period time indicators and state fixed effects. Samples are restricted to women on Medicaid before pregnancy (Group 1) for column 1, and during pregnancy for columns 2 and 3 (Groups 2 and 3),

indicates P<.05
Smoking before pregnancy defined as ‘Yes’ to “Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in the past two years?” and reported a positive value for “In the 3 months before you got pregnant, how many cigarettes or packs of cigarettes did you smoke on an average day?”
Smoking during pregnancy defined from positive value for “In the last 3 months of your pregnancy, how many cigarettes or packs of cigarettes did you smoke on an average day?”
Smoking after delivery defined from positive value for “How many cigarettes or packs of cigarettes do you smoke on an average day now?” [Survey response averages 4–6 months after delivery.
Group 3 does not equal the sum of Groups 1 and 2, because some women enrolled in Medicaid before pregnancy do not remain in Medicaid during their pregnancy or delivery period or because data on smoking is missing during the prenatal or delivery period.
State has some form of coverage, including states with some form of coverage of NRT, medications, and counseling, but not already represented in categories 1 or 2.
