The field of substance use disorder treatment is facing a time of great change and opportunity. Integration of Substance Use Disorder Treatment: As part of CAL AIM, California is focusing on integrating substance use disorder (SUD) treatment with other forms of care. This means that SUD services are no longer siloed but instead are part of a broader effort to address the whole person’s health needs. It also emphasizes coordination between physical, behavioral, and mental health services.
Value-Based Payment (VBP) Model: A core part of CAL AIM is transitioning from traditional fee-for-service (FFS) payment models to VBP models. Under VBP, providers are incentivized based on the quality and outcomes of the care they deliver, rather than the volume of services. This model aims to improve patient outcomes, reduce unnecessary services, and control healthcare costs.
