How can I get health insurance to cover the cost of quitting smoking?

Someone who has been smoking for 7 years and wants to quit- and has access to fairly good health insurance- does anyone have experience getting health insurance to cover cost of medications, etc for quitting smoking? I know this depneds entirely on the plan- but I am curious about the procedure? - did you have to get medication prescribed, etc

i have worked in the health industry for 25 years almost all insurance companies will not cover meds to help you stop smoking..even if they are prescribed by a dr they will offer you smoking cessation classes but that is about it
