The California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), in partnership with The Center at Sierra Health Foundation, is funding the expansion of Medication Units across the state. This includes efforts to increase access to medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) for rural areas, for people who have been arrested or incarcerated, for Indigenous and Native communities, for patients without transportation, and to places that do not have a Narcotic Treatment Program (NTP) near to patients who need those services. This 18-month contract will be for up to $750,000 per Medication Unit.
Applications are due by Monday, April 28 at 1 p.m. PST
