* Practice Performance Ranking Quartiles based on proportion of patients from the practice reporting advice to quit (immediate exit card quartiles: First Quartile = 0% to 19% of tobacco users from the practice reporting advice; Second Quartile = 20% to 33% reporting advice; Third Quartile = 34% to 75% reporting advice; Fourth Quartile = 76% to 100% reporting advice). † Second Quartile includes 16 practices due to a tie in ranking | |||
