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.
Provides strategies to build support for expanding the use of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and resources for securing buy-in.
Provides an evidence-based quality improvement roadmap to help primary care teams implement effective, guideline-driven care for their chronic pain and long-term opioid therapy patients.
Explores the connections between opioid abuse, overdose, and suicide. Examines current research on the relationship between these problems and discusses opportunities for cross-sector collaboration to address them.
Explores ways to expand the use of evidence-based treatment for OUD.
Addresses prevention of opioid use disorder by exploring efforts across the health system to stop opioid abuse before it starts.
