Patient Care Programs & Quality Assurance
Patient care support and quality go hand in hand
Treating opioid use disorder
We’ve joined forces with the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) and Yale New Haven Hospital to create a video series on opioid use disorder. It explores how to use medication-assisted treatment and harm-reduction strategies in your practice.
Resources & support for behavioral health care
Many patients feel most comfortable learning about treatment options from their primary care provider. These patient care programs can help primary care providers obtain specialized care for patients with certain behavioral health conditions.
Depression in Primary Care
Alcohol and Drug Use Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment
Integrated Primary Care Behavioral Health
Connecting patients with the right care
It's important to choose the right care for patients with behavioral health needs. These tools can help:

- Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) Medical Necessity Guide
- American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) Treatment Criteria
