Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this activity, participants will:

Identify the key components and steps for developing and implementing an addiction medicine access program
Understand potential innovative strategies and outcomes from initiatives that provide telemedicine-based clinical OUD treatment and buprenorphine services in underserved rural areas
Identify benefits and barriers to integrating medical and psychiatric services for patients in an Opioid Treatment Program.

Presentation Summary: Presenters from the University of Maryland, Baltimore, will provide an overview of innovative approaches to expand access to and integration of OUD treatment. These approaches include a mobile telemedicine unit to provide buprenorphine treatment in underserved rural areas, telemedicine buprenorphine treatment for incarcerated individuals, and OTP medication adherence monitoring using an app-based asynchronous telemedicine platform. These several initiatives also host original research programs, data which are used to characterize treatment outcomes and inform implementation efforts. Additionally, presenters will discuss several access programs under their direction (MACS, MACS for MOMS, and DACS), services which provide education and support for clinicians who treat individuals with OUD, other SUD s, and chronic pain. Presenters will also describe a program embedded within the University’s opioid treatment program that provides integrated primary and urgent care, infectious disease treatment, and trauma informed mental health services. Finally, presenters will provide an overview and lessons learned from a multisite program that facilitates care coordination for individuals who need to be enrolled in methadone treatment while hospitalized prior to discharge to a Skilled Nursing Facility.
