Webinar: Medicaid Coverage and Financing of Medication-Assisted Treatment

Webinar: Medicaid Coverage and Financing of MAT, Current Status, and Promising Practices

Thursday, August 17, 2017 | 3:30–5 p.m. Eastern Time

Join us for an upcoming webinar on a forthcoming update to the 2014 SAMHSA report, Medicaid Coverage and Financing of Medications to Treat Alcohol and Opioid Use Disorders. We will review information on state Medicaid payment policies for medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and speakers will present case studies of innovative MAT models. This up-to-date information about Medicaid MAT coverage will be helpful for consumers and family members, providers, health plan and Medicaid staff, policymakers, and government officials.

After this webinar, participants will

• Understand how MAT currently is covered under Medicaid at the state level
• Understand barriers to MAT coverage and possible actions to improve coverage
• Be able to describe some innovative financing models
