Definition: MAT is the use of medication, combined with counseling and behavioral therapies, to provide a whole patient approach to the treatment of substance use disorders. (http://www.dpt.samhsa.gov )
Use of pharmacotherapy for drug dependence and detoxification is expanding
Research continues to confirm that the use of MAT provides better outcomes, and reductions in drug use, mortality rates, and criminal activity (Rieckmann et al., 2010; Woody et al., 2008; Saxon & McCarty, 2005; Greenfeld & Fountain, 2000).
BACKGROUND
![Page 15: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
MAT Effectiveness Published by SASMHA as Treatment Improvement Protocol
(TIP) 43, MAT is a widely recognized evidence based practice
Research indicates that MAT is effective for opioid dependent patients seeking treatment along with counseling (Marchandet al., 2011).
MAT is cost effective & provides more health benefits than providing treatment without medication (M. Connock et al., 2007)
BACKGROUND
![Page 16: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Agonist therapy or MAT, has been hailed as the most effective treatment, especially when combined with psychotherapy (Barnett et al., 2001).
MAT Goals:• Reduce symptoms and signs of withdrawal• Reduce or eliminate craving• Block effects of alcohol or illicit opioids• Restore normal physiology• Promote psychosocial rehabilitation and non‐drug lifestyle
Research to date confirms lower risk of abuse, overdose, and toxicity and diminished withdrawal symptoms when using medication assisted treatment (Burns et al., 2009).

MAT IMPLEMENTATION
ATTC Network Definition of ImplementationIncorporating an innovation into routine practice. Implementation ideally includes a range of strategies designed to address individual, organizational, and systemic characteristics (e.g., skills training, administrative buy‐in, and policy changes).
![Page 22: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Barriers to Implementation Gap between research and practice
• Adoption of medication to treat SUDs remains slow despite evidence of effectiveness
• There is a critical need to merge the gap between research and practice with MAT
Organizational factors• Two‐thirds of organizations' efforts to implement change fail (Damschroder et al., 2009).
• Implementation requires an active change process aimed to achieve individual and organizational level use of the intervention as designed (Damshroder at al., 2009).
MAT IMPLEMENTATION ‐ BARRIERS
![Page 23: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Barriers to Implementation
Workforce resistance• Less than 45% of US substance use disorder treatment programs are found to prescribe any single SUD medication (Roman et al., 2011).

Gap Between Research and Practice
According to SAMHSA’s National Survey of Substance Abuse Treatment Services, only 22.3% of patients seeking treatment for a SUD were receiving medication assisted treatment‐Methadone and Buprenorphine (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, N‐SSATS Report, 2008).
Similarly – The National Treatment Center Studies from UGA found that 14.3% of programs reported using Buprenorphine,10.7% use Methadone, 15.2% use Naltrexone, and 16.5% use Disulfiram, from a 2007 study (Knudsen et al., 2010).

Organizational Factors as Barriers
Agencies with national accreditation (Ducharme et al., 2008; Knudsen et al., 2010).
Agencies that adhere to a 12‐step model Focus on individual, not organizational
‐Much of the research on implementation of evidence‐based SUD interventions emphasizes individual counselor training, with less attention on the influence of organizational factors (Damschroder et al., 2011).

Overcoming Organizational Barriers
Characteristics of the medication and societal attitudes influence the adoption of medication assisted treatment (Knudsen et al., 2007; Mark et al., 2009; Ducharme et al., 2009; Rieckmann et al., 2011).
State regulations may create or remove barriers to the adoption of MATs by community‐based treatment provider organizations (Ducharme et al., 2008).
Persons endorsing a 12‐step model perceived less interest in addiction medication (McGovern et al., 2004).

Workforce Barriers Environmental pressures including market and
regulations, treatment philosophy, resource constraints, service objectives, and patient mix influence MAT adoption (Wallack et al., 2010; Scott et al., 1993).
Lack of knowledge from physicians about medication assisted treatment (Mark et al., 2003).
Complexity of treatment, costs, regulatory limits Differing physician beliefs: not enough evidence Need for physician training

Overcoming Workforce Barriers Influence from society and other providers Specific training leads to greater acceptabilityWhile physician knowledge of effectiveness and
an organization’s positive attitude toward medications are important, physicians are dependent on structural and procedural supports in their office settings to allow for MATs (Wallacket al., 2010).

Achieving MAT ImplementationWhere to start: Listening and education
• Do staff understand the need or gap in services?
• Do staff understand the clinical implications of the change on their work?
• Will clients be different from the ones we treat now?
• Does staff have the requisite knowledge, tools, and equipment to be successful?
MAT IMPLEMENTATION ‐ SUCCESS
![Page 30: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What is Needed for Successful MAT Implementation
Research indicates that training improves staff attitudes and beliefs (Johnson et al., 2005; Knudsen et al., 2005; Rieckmann et al., 2011).
Research also suggests that experience with medications (for counselors) leads to more positive perspectives (Thomas et al., 2003; Knudsen et al., 2005).
Research network participation helps promote positive attitudes toward EBPs (Campbell et al., 2003; Levant et al., 2008).

Conclusion
The uptake of new treatment protocols cannot always be guaranteed based on evidence proving the effectiveness of
those protocols.
Healthcare fields can often be reluctant to approach new treatment methods resulting in a need for outreach efforts to
ensure that the treatment field understands the importance of applying new methods to practice.

NIDA/SAMHSA Blending Initiative
According to Webster’s Dictionary definition
To Blendmeans: a. combine into an integrated whole; b. produce a harmonious effect
http://www.merriam‐webster.com/dictionary/blend
![Page 37: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
What is the Blending Initiative?• GOAL: To move important scientific findings into mainstream addiction treatment
• Developed in 2001, NIDA and SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment came together to work on a common vision:– Improve substance use disorder treatment and accelerate the dissemination of research‐based findings into community‐based practice.
![Page 38: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The NIDA/SAMHSA Blending Initiative encompasses three
components:
• Regional Blending Conferences• State Agency Partnerships• Blending Teams
![Page 39: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Regional Blending Conferences

Data Analysis
• Focus groups professionally transcribed
• Codebook developed for analysis – Code Examples:
• Benefits• Ease of Access• Self‐Efficacy• Culture‐ Language• Family Support• Street Culture
• Fieldnotes & transcriptions coded by 3 researchers
![Page 73: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Broad Themes
Benefits/Barriers related to MAT
Motivation to use MAT
Role of Family/Significant others
Access to treatment/Barriers
Self‐Efficacy
Influence of provider/clinic
MAT as drug v. MAT as medication
![Page 74: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Surprising Results
! Weak emphasis on ethnic culture throughout most groups
! Strong emphasis on street/drug culture
! Definitions of “a good life”/motivations
! Family as a double‐edged sword
! Importance of “fictive kin” and clinic support
![Page 75: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
In Situ Particulars
• Participant lucidity– Dosing– “Nodding out”
• Children
• Ambient noise
• Room temperature
• Hostile participants
• Time constraints
• Late participants/Interruptions
![Page 76: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Reflections/Recommendations
• Advantage of facilitator consistency v. facilitator specificity
• Broad v. local geographic sampling
• Saturation per cultural group
• Screening procedures (ethnicity v. culture)
![Page 77: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Reflections/Recommendations
• Participant demographics (gender, age, type of substance)
• Remember discrepancies between research and practice– Reading level of participant materials– Un‐useful Incentives
• Importance of focus groups for emergent data
![Page 78: ATTC Network Efforts to Combat Resistance to MAT (2011 AHSR Conference)](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052901/55648c5ed8b42a5f6c8b4a76/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
