Addiction treatment is constantly evolving. Leading-edge treatments and updates to evidence-based therapies can drastically improve patient outcomes. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is becoming better known by patients and better understood by providers, which can make it a more targeted and sought-after treatment. New technology can help MAT centers coordinate with patients, providers, and staff while improving compliance and patient safety.

Benefits of New Technology in MAT
You’ve probably already adopted some technology to help you manage your MAT center. But does it do everything you need? Considering a new software or management platform might seem like a hassle, but the benefits can greatly improve how you operate.
Improved Patient Monitoring and Care
Some new software programs allow MAT centers to track patient progress more closely through check-in communication, telehealth appointments, and patient engagement documentation. These checkpoints are especially helpful for patients in recovery, as they can improve accountability and identify any warning signs of relapse or non-compliance. With better monitoring, MAT centers can intervene earlier and adjust treatment plans accordingly to ensure successful outcomes for patients.
Enhanced Communication and Coordination
Technology also facilitates better communication between patients and care teams. Integrations with lab results, prescription orders, and appointment scheduling help reduce paperwork and streamline processes. Additionally, MAT centers can use technology to communicate with patients via secure platforms, providing a more convenient way for them to ask questions or report any issues they may be having.
Increased Efficiency and Compliance
With new technology comes improved efficiency in daily operations at MAT centers. Automated tracking of medication doses and inventory management reduces the risk of errors or diversion while saving time for staff members. In-app communication between team members can also improve coordination and streamline workflows.
Better Claims Management
At the end of the day, you need to ensure you’re getting paid correctly and on time. A seamless revenue cycle management (RCM) can ensure you’re submitting clean claims, matching services rendered with insurance approvals, and tracking claims with clarity.
Secure Data Tracking and Reporting
Data security is a top priority in healthcare, and new technology can offer advanced systems to protect patient information. With secure data tracking and reporting capabilities, MAT centers can easily access and analyze their data for quality improvement initiatives and reporting requirements.
