Tobacco use is the largest preventable cause of death and disease in the United States. To spread awareness about the health risks associated with tobacco use, May 31 is observed as World No Tobacco Day every year. The day also encourages the government and stakeholders to take steps to reduce smoking and the use of other tobacco products. The tagline of this year’s event is “Don’t let tobacco take your breath away”. Professional medical billing companies can help practitioners get paid for cessation services using the proper service and diagnosis codes.
