Contingency Management for Healthcare Settings

CM for Healthcare Settings

This comprehensive online course, developed by the Northwest ATTC, features separate modules for each of four common personnel roles in healthcare organizations: decision-makers, clinical supervisors, direct care staff, and administrative support staff. 

Healthcare organizations may utilize these training modules as means of an initial introduction to CM principles and practices for their staff; however, the primary intent of this online course is as a bridge to more intensive technical assistance—as outlined by Hartzler and colleagues in this article in the Journal of Substance Use and Addiction Treatment (2023) (free online).

All four modules include an introduction to contingency management (CM) describing:

  • its core elements,
  • 3 scientifically-supported systems,
  • how it can be used in healthcare settings to have a positive impact on clients. 

Each module also offers unique content on how each role can successfully integrate CM into their program.

CEU Available! 1.0 Decision Makers, 2.5 Clinical Supervisors, 2.0 Direct Care Staff, 1.0 Administrative Support Staff.

In response to SAMHSA instruction provided to State Opioid Response grantees (in FY 22 SOR Grants TI-22-005, Appendix J: Contingency Management), a set of four supplemental brief information guides have been created on targeted topics to complement the material included in this online course. These information guides provide further information on: Discussing Client EligibilityAllowable RewardsDrug Screening Methods, and Documentation Practices.
