Who is considered to be Nicotine Exposed?

You are considered Nicotine Exposed if you use any type of tobacco product; i.e. chewing tobacco, cigars, cigarettes, pipe, nicotine replacement therapies, e-cigarettes that contain nicotine in any amount, or are exposed to significant amounts of nicotine which could result in a positive cotinine lab test. A non-nicotine exposed member is defined as an individual that has remained nicotine free for 90 consecutive days beginning with a negative cotinine lab test. Nicotine exposure is tested through qualifying lab work. Refer to the Tobacco Program Guidelines for more details.
