* 28 day follow up should be for people setting a quit date, but also those that undertake a smoking reduction approach (Tobacco dependence care plans numbers 20 or 30).
** For inpatients that have a long length of stay (greater than 28 days), the 28-day outcome will be recorded whilst they are an inpatient and reported before the patient is discharged
*** Include both patients that opt-out and do not see a Tobacco Dependence Adviser or those that choose not to have any intervention with the adviser
