Of the roughly 2.1 million U.S. adults who have opioid use disorder, 19% receive Methadone treatment. In the current illicit drug supply landscape, Methadone and other MOUD medications are a vital part of preventing overdose harm and deaths and supporting recovery. This 6-month Project ECHO will highlight Methadone as a treatment for Opioid Use Disorder, with a focus on state-of-the-art practices and treatments.
