Integrated Dynamic Care Model for Medication Assisted Treatment and Recovery
A Recorded Webinar
Recorded on Wednesday, November 16, 2022

Jump to Course Contents
Description
The Integrated Dynamic Care Model (IDCM) is a dimensional approach to caring for people with opioid use disorder (OUD). The epidemic of drug overdose deaths claimed the lives of 841,000 Americans between 1999 and 2019. More than 70% of these deaths in 2019 are due to opioids. Clinical models that are based on the delivery of acute episodes of care are ill-suited to meeting the needs of a patient population suffering from a chronic condition like OUD. Behavioral Health Group (BHG) has responded to this by creating an integrated dynamic care model for deployment in both its opioid treatment programs (OTPs) and office based opioid treatment (OBOT) settings.
Learning Objectives
  • Participants will be able to describe office-based medication assisted treatment with Buprenorphine and review two current treatment approaches.
  • Participants will be able to identify in at least three instances the clinical need for an integrated care model that treats patients with opioid use disorder.
  • Participants will compile four practical steps to adequately assess and refer patients with opioid use disorders to appropriate levels of care.
