It combines counseling, behavioral therapies, and the use of FDA-approved medication (methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone) and can be deployed in a variety of settings, including the emergency department (ED), which is a critical intervention point for individuals with a substance use disorder (SUD). ED interventions can be applied to those who arrive due to overdose, those specifically seeking treatment, or those presenting for a different condition but identified as needing SUD-specific treatment via screening.

Key elements of MAT models in primary care include: pharmacotherapy with buprenorphine or naltrexone, educational interventions for the provider and the community to raise awareness and reduce stigma, coordination and integration of treatment with other medical and behavioral needs, and counseling services.
