RELEASED: AATOD State Chapter Responses on Mobile Vans 📘 ➡️bit.ly/3BnJqGa⬅️ This report provides an overview of the barriers that OTPS have faced in expanding access to mobile van services in the United States. This includes the lack of Medicaid reimbursement for the services offered through such vans in addition to such state regulations and the need for sustainable funding sources. It is our hope that this report will provide further guidance to OTPs in addition to federal and state officials. Our association has always taken the position that the use of mobile van services and non mobile medication units will increase access to the treatment of opioid use disorder in a meaningful and responsible way. We continue to be grateful to the Opioid Response Network, the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry (AAAP) and particularly the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration for their unwavering support in developing this project.
