The California Opioid Use Disorder and Medication Assisted Treatment Expansion Data Dashboard (CA OUD and MAT Expansion Data Dashboard), is a resource developed by Health Management Associates (HMA), with funding from SAMHSA’s State Opioid Response (SOR) grants, administered by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS). In California, the SOR grants are collectively known as the California MAT Expansion Project.
Funding for the California MAT Expansion Project supports approximately 30 initiatives, with the goals of increasing access to MAT, reducing unmet treatment need, and reducing opioid overdose deaths through prevention, treatment and recovery services. The California Opioid Use Disorder and Medication Assisted Treatment Expansion Data Dashboard (CA OUD and MAT Expansion Data Dashboard) was developed as a component of HMA’s California MAT Expansion Project work.
The Data Dashboard is intended to be a tool for participants in MAT Expansion projects, policy makers, providers, elected officials, funders, opioid coalitions, and any other citizen interested in data related to opioid use, outcomes, and systems of support. Users can explore both individual and comparative indicators at the county and state levels to better understand the status of the opioid epidemic and SOR grant-funded projects and resources that are in place to address it. The CA OUD and MAT Expansion Data Dashboard incudes data elements, trends, rates, and counts for many opioid use disorder (OUD) and substance use disorder (SUD) indicators from all 58 counties within California.
