AHRQ Issues Funding Opportunity Announcement (R18): Increasing Access to Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) in Rural Primary Care Practices 

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) issued a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) on December 2, 2015 titled Increasing Access to Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) in Rural Primary Care Practices (R18).  
This initiative will fund demonstration research (R18) projects that implement Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder in primary care practices in rural areas of the United States.  While expanding access to this evidence-based therapy in underserved communities, this initiative will discover and test solutions to overcoming known barriers to implementation of MAT in primary care and create training and implementation resources to support future efforts to expand access to MAT.
