MOUD 101 Course

This toolkit was designed to provide access to Technical Assistance (TA) resources, aids, videos, products, and to connect the most recent and best practice with the services provided. We hope this course provides basic support to behavioral health providers and dispels myths associated with medication-assisted treatment (MAT) or medication for opioid use disorders (MOUD) within the context of this critically important service.

Course Content and Duration

The content of this course is divided into three segments totaling just over one hour of content (01:03:07). The ultimate goal of this course is to help promote the use of Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) and address common myths and misconceptions regarding its use. You may be familiar with the term MAT, or Medication-Assisted Treatment. This term is gradually being replaced with MOUD; therefore, we will be using this language throughout these segments.

• Segment 1: Introduction & Impact (Length 12:42)
• Segment 2: Myths & Misconceptions (Length 19:45)
• Segment 3: Medication Overview & Next Steps as a Provider (Length 30:40)
