What's covered and not covered by medical insurance is pretty capricious. My $13,000 surgery was completely paid for by me out-of-pocket...so I'm quite willing to see smokers buy their own Zyban and Nicoderm, especially considering what I'm paying every month to COBRA my health insurance.
Quitting is possible, even without drugs. I did it. More than once, before it stuck.
