Provider’s Clinical Support System - Medication Assisted Treatment Grant

Grant Announcement

Application Due Date: Tuesday, February 26, 2019

SAMHSA is accepting applications for Provider’s Clinical Support System - Medication Assisted Treatment (PCSS-MAT) grant. The purpose of this program is to expand the number of Drug Addiction Treatment Act (DATA) 2000 waived providers, increase understanding of the importance of medication-assisted treatment and ultimately increase access to MAT through expanded prescribing of FDA-approved medications for the treatment of opioid use disorders. Although the current initiative has provided multiple trainings and mentoring support, there still remains a significant need to increase the number of healthcare providers to address the nation’s lack of adequate access to care and treatment for opioid and other substance use disorders. The PCSS-MAT program will continue to provide up-to-date and evidence-based information to support the training of health professionals and to address the complex issues of addiction.

SAMHSA plans to issue 1 grant of up to $2,000,000 per year for up to 3 years.
