Learn How Treatment of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) Fits Within Primary Care

SAMHSA's Practical Tools for Prescribing and Promoting Buprenorphine in Primary Care Settings gives providers information and practices on implementing opioid use disorder treatment using buprenorphine. It also identifies common barriers and strategies to overcome them, and documents step-by-step tactics to support buprenorphine implementation.

AHRQ released a new topic brief titled The Role of Low-Threshold Treatment for Patients with OUD in Primary Care, which discusses how care of patients with OUD is a natural fit for primary care and its fundamental strengths.
