Substance Abuse

Substance Use Disorder (SUD)

Direct access to substance use disorder (SUD) treatment:
Direct Access allows an individual to go directly to a provider they choose to receive a comprehensive assessment and access care immediately. Direct Access removes barriers of timing associated with going through a placing authority, allows for individual choice, and removes duplication of comprehensive assessments.

Behavioral Health Funds:
