Confidential Virtual Addiction Treatment for Healthcare Workers

COVID-19 Research Area(s): Epidemiology & Public Health, Healthcare Delivery & Policy

COVID-19 has layered a second public health emergency on top of the ongoing opioid epidemic and healthcare professionals, faced with unprecedented demands, are at an elevated risk for substance use and abuse. This project will provide healthcare workers with access to confidential virtual care and evidence-based treatment options for substance use, regardless of where they live or work and assess the potential for widespread adoption of the program into existing employee benefit plans.
