Forecasted Opportunity

Medication-Assisted Treatment – Prescription Drug and Opioid Addiction

The purpose of this SAMHSA program is to expand/enhance access to medication-assisted treatment (MAT) services for persons with an opioid use disorder (OUD) seeking or receiving MAT. The desired outcomes for this program are: 1) an increase in the number of individuals with OUD receiving MAT; and 2) a decrease in illicit opioid drug use and prescription opioid misuse at six-month follow-up.
