Substance Use Disorder Services In The Days Of A Pandemic: You Need A Bigger Boat!

Providing SUD services during a pandemic requires a mix of disaster preparedness, safety precautions, telehealth, and ethics. During her tenure as a leader in SUD treatment, Sheila Weix has been involved with emergencies related to the HIV epidemic, 9/11, and the 2008 economic collapse. She is currently applying this experience in an outpatient treatment service that includes medication-assisted treatment in rural Wisconsin during the COVID19 pandemic.

Webinar participants will learn about:

  • Safety precautions
  • How to move all services to telehealth
  • Reimbursement contingencies
  • Leadership actions underway to address this rapidly changing situation
