A Duke Opioid Collaboratory project has released a guide to providing medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) through office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) programming at local health departments or other primary care clinics.

This guide was developed in a collaboration between Granville Vance Public Health and the Duke University School of Medicine’s Department of Population Health Sciences.

It is designed for providers and practice managers interested in starting an OBOT program in their clinic or local health department and local government leaders interested in supporting OBOT in their communities.
