Serving as a national resource for payment and delivery system reform for substance use disorder treatment
Funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), the Brandeis-Harvard Center to Improve System Performance of Substance Use Disorder Treatment fills a critical public health need to better understand how to improve performance of the delivery system for treatment of substance use disorders (SUD). The Center brings together the collective expertise of Brandeis and Harvard researchers, using research on payment methods and service delivery organization to synergistically expand the research base, ensure SUD treatment services are included in efforts to improve quality and reduce cost of health care services, and inform policy decisions that will profoundly affect the cost, quality and availability of SUD treatment services.
