Resource Summary: By providing CMS-covered Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) services in the treatment of Substance/Opioid Use Disorders (SUD and OUD) your community health center's clinical providers may be eligible for a broader range of provider loan repayment programs while providing desperately needed services to patients who need help with the medical and behavioral health issues related to this other public health emergency.
