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 0.69 MB] and Volume 2 [PDF 1.28 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 development and validation of a low-literacy, English-language opioid contract.
Uses a 20-item instrument administered in an interview format to track behaviors characteristic of addiction related to prescription opioid medications in chronic pain populations. The instrument is scored based on participant responses, interviewer observations of displayed behaviors, and information gathered from medical chart review.
Facilitates ongoing evaluation of patient pain and documentation of pain management. Includes sections to assess pain-related outcomes in four areas: analgesia, activities of daily living, adverse events, and aberrant drug-related behavior.
Screens individuals for drug dependence, including use of opioids, with an 11-item self-report instrument.
