Smoking cessation support
Plan your appointment
How can we help you stop smoking?
Many people find it difficult to stop smoking or vaping. But it is always possible, whatever your age or background. Our recognised tobacco cessation specialist will guide you step by step, with support tailored to your needs.
More information about our support
We offer individual consultations by appointment. Your GP or treating doctor can refer you to our recognised tabacco cessation specialist, or you can contact us on your own initiative. Are you staying in our hospital? You can also ask the nurses or doctors to start a programme with our tobacco cessation specialist.
You will find more information in the brochure below.
How much does it cost?
In Flanders, smoking cessation support is largely reimbursed by the Flemish government. This makes the support very accessible and affordable.
- You receive reimbursement for up to 4 hours per year.
- Standard rate: 7.5 euros per quarter of an hour.
- Increased reimbursement: 1 euro per quarter of an hour.
- The remaining costs are reimbursed to the tobacco cessation specialist by the Flemish government.
