SAMMEC is an online application that allows you to estimate the health
and health-related economic consequences of smoking to adults and infants.
Adult SAMMEC calculates annual smoking-attributable deaths, years of potential
life lost, medical expenditures, and productivity costs for adults in the
United States, individual states, and user-defined populations.
Updated estimates on the burden of disease attributable to smoking
have been made available in the
2004 Surgeon General’s
Report: The Health Consequences of Smoking.
Revisions that reflect the updated estimates will be available by late summer,
2004, and may necessitate removal of individual level custom SAMMEC data.
It is highly recommended that users back-up all custom level files.
Maternal and
Child Health (MCH) SAMMEC estimates the number of annual smoking-attributable deaths and
years of potential life lost for infants in the United States, individual states,
and neonatal medical expenditures for certain user-defined populations.
