This collection of tools and resources is for providers, staff, and patients who offer or use services to address substance use, and other interested stakeholders. This collection was originally established following an environmental scan on implementing medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder (OUD) in rural primary care. (See PDFs of Volume 1 (PDF - 609 KB) and Volume 2 (PDF - 1.3 MB) of that scan). Items have been continuously added to this collection since then, and the collection has expanded to cover substance use more broadly, rather than just MAT for OUD.
Describes an SBIRT model that was developed initially to be combined with emergency department-initiated buprenorphine treatment but can be used in any ambulatory healthcare setting.
Provides a log for buprenorphine prescriptions that can be kept by physicians or buprenorphine-treated patients.
Provides a form that can be used when advocating with insurers about prior authorization process for buprenorphine.
