VA/DoD SUD Protocol INTEGRATED VA/DOD SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT PROTOCOL The Veteran's Administration and the Department of Defense have spent billions of dollars in research to develop Practice Guidelines for the Management of Substance Use Disorder. However, no other system has deployed an integrated tool to implement these Practice Guidelines until MEDSYS2.

The Process Flow System presents information in an easy to understand format as designed by the VA/DoD, but then it allows the user to click on various components within the diagram to generate the appropriate clinical documentation, assessment tools and tests to determine the client's severity of addiction and treatment plan.

“MEDSYS2 is already recognized as a leading Home Health Care System. And now its Behavioral Health/ Substance Abuse System has gained favor by State Agencies and County Governments in the management of information related to the Opioid Use epidemic. We believe the future of Substance Use Disorder treatment will take place in the patient's home. MEDSYS2 is uniquely positioned to address the needs of this clientiele.” -Ken Brown President/CEO

Practice Management Addiction Medicine EHR Improves Efficiency & Care Delivery EFFICIENT AGENCIES ARE USUALLY TARGETED FOR BUYOUT With the increased emphasis on successful outcomes and new care models such as ACOs and patient-centered medical treatment centers, it's not enough to merely have an agency management addiction medicine EHR solution. You need powerful software that's intelligent, collaborative and efficient to help both clinical staff and administrative staff maximize their time and focus on improving agency operations and care delivery. The MEDSYS2 behavioral health care/substance abuse software application empowers users to integrate and share clinical, financial and administrative data across widely dispersed geographic regions and settings of care. Our system provides the tools an agency needs to help your clinical and administrative staff complete clinical care documentation and get the information they need quickly and easily. By measuring progress toward completion and automating communication to process stakeholders, MEDSYS2 behavioral health care/substance abuse system strengthens teamwork and improves patient outcomes.

Integrated Toxicology

Screening Results CONDUCTING URINALYSIS TESTS TWICE A WEEK RESULTS IN PAPERWORK OVERFLOW A toxicology screen is a test that determines the approximate amount and type of legal or illegal drugs that you’ve taken. It may be used to screen for drug abuse, to monitor a substance abuse problem, or to evaluate drug intoxication or overdose. Toxicology screening can be done fairly quickly. The test is most often done using a urine or blood sample. In some cases, a sample of saliva or hair may be used. The results can show the presence of one specific drug or a variety of drugs at once. Further testing may be needed to determine the exact amount of a particular drug in the body and to confirm the results. MEDSYS2 Addiction Medicine EHR Software integrates directly with various Labs to receive the toxicology screening results directly into the patient's chart.

What is SIRP, GIRP, BIRP & SOAP? PROGRESS NOTE FORMATS OF SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER AVAILABLE IN MEDSYS2 For those "Old Timers " that are thinking What About DAP? Data Assessment Plan (DAP) was dropped as an approved progress note documentation standard in 2013. It has since been replaced by the more recent formats such as Situation Intervention Response and Progress (SIRP) , Goal Intervention Response and Plan (GIRP), or the Behavior Intervention, Response and Plan (BIRP). Of course we also provide the Subjective, Objective, Assessment and Plan (SOAP) format which is used by all disciplines of health care. We believe at MEDSYS2 that we should not dictate which documentation standard your agency uses, but rather, allow you to use any or all of the approved standards for documenting your client's progress. Drug Interaction Check PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION PROFILE & DRUG TO DRUG INTERACTION An important component of the patient health information (PHI) is their medication profile. Clinicians addressing substance use disorder (SUD) must capture this information accurately. MEDSYS2 Substance Abuse Software

contains a 35,000 plus list of medications and dosages. It facilitates the clinician in the intake process by allowing the clinician to point-and-click to build the client's medication profile. A second aspect of the MEDSYS2 medication profile subsystem is to conduct a Drug-to-Drug interaction check. The system contains a 25 million record database which can identify dangerous drug interactions in less than 5 seconds. This feature is key to facilities that may be providing Methadone, Suboxone or other treatment medications. Personnel System SURVEYOR'S CONCERNS ON HR ARE THE #1 FINDING MEDSYS2 Addiction Medicine EHR Software has a fully integrated personnel management system. There are over 30 items that are monitored with automated alerts to ensure that proper records are maintained. Because your employees are interfacing with a vulnerable patient population, it is imperative that you know who you are employing and the MEDSYS2 Substance Abuse EHR maintains Sex Offender, Child Abuse, and Criminal History information within the employee file and issues annual review reminders. Our system also provides for company policy

acknowledgements and consent forms which the employee signature is captured and maintained. This feature could mean the very existence of your company should an employee's misconduct result in legal action. Check OIG List of Excluded Individuals and Entities VERIFY THAT YOUR EMPLOYEES ARE NOT LISTED ON THE OIG LEIE DATABASE IN ONE CLICK Did you know that you are required to check each of your employees against the Office of Inspector General's list of Excluded Individuals and Entities every 30 Days? Failure to exercise this function will not only jeopardize your accreditation, but also your State license to operate as a substance abuse treatment program. We make it easy for you to remain compliant. Master Treatment Plan A GOOD COMPREHENSIVE TREATMENT PLAN IS THE KEY TO RECOVERY MEDSYS2 Substance Abuse EHR Treatment Plan is problem focused by ASAM dimension. The system comes preloaded with over a thousand selectable options for Problems, Goals, Objectives and Interventions and allows you to track up to five problems per dimension or 30 problems overall.

Evidenced Based Treatment BECK, GAINS, ASAM ARE JUST A FEW OF THE EVIDENCE BASED TREATMENT METHODOLOGIES The MEDSYS2 Substance Abuse Software allows you to utilize multiple evidence-based treatment tools including Beck's Anxiety Scale, Beck's Depression Inventory, ASAM based Chemical Dependency Assessment, GAINS Short Screener, etc. Integrating evidenced-based treatment protocols into the Substance Abuse EHR allows users to not only document patient encounters but also identify patterns that may lead to successful treatment of substance use disorders (SUD). In-Home Substance Abuse Treatment EXPANDING MARKET WITH HIGHER SUCCESS RATES AND NO GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARIES Doctors do it, Nurses do it, and now it's time for Substance Abuse Counselors to do it. Instead of having to depend on your client to find their way to your IOP/OP Treatment facility or depending on their Recovery or Sober Home to provide transportation to your facility, many of the addiction medicine and substance abuse counselors are travelling to the client's place of residence whether it's at a recovery / sober home or a private residence. Evidenced Based Treatment BECK, GAINS, AS M ARE JUST A FEW OF THE VIDENCE BASED TREATMENT METHODOL GIES The MEDSY 2 ubstance Abuse Software allows you to utilize multiple evidence-based treatment tools including Beck's Anxiety Scale, Beck's Depression I ventory, AS M based Chemical Dep ndency Asse sment, GAINS Short Screen r, tc.

The MEDSYS2 Substance Abuse Software and Addiction Medicine EHR is already configured for data synchronization which means you can take your laptop on the road with no internet service and complete your intakes or encounter notes and then synch the data back to your office when an internet connection is available. No other substance abuse software system has this feature.

Outcome Measures Required to Maintain Accreditation WHETHER YOUR ACCREDITATION IS BY CARF, ACHC OR JCAHO • Does your system support self-designated gender identification? • Do you track sexual orientation? • Do you know the top 3 substances your clients are addicted to and what was their age at first use, peak use or method of use? • Do you know their employment status? or their housing status? • Do you know whether your client is currently pregnant? • Do you know if your client utilizes needles in their illicit drug use? • And most importantly, do you know whether your client successfully completed your treatment program and if not why? These are just a few of the items that are included in the Substance Abuse Software's Client Profile for outcome measurements that you will not find in a plain Behavioral Health software package. Can You Track Recovery Goals? Record and Graph Individual Long & Short Term Goals Made Easy Goals originate from the treatment plan are further expanded to define the meaning of each demarcation point in the range from 10 to 100%. The MEDSYS2 Addiction Medicine EHR allows the counselors to clearly define the criteria for each value and tailor the values for a specific client. Once the incremental values are defined, then users can select the date and click on the numeric value and the system will graph the client's progress towards the goal. This feature contained in the Substance Abuse EHR is not only convenient but is important to the management of the case. It allows the provider (counselor) to take a periodic snapshot and see the client's progress over time.t

Sign of the times Experts say the newly approved implant also provides a big boost to the concept of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) in general. For years, the idea that someone could achieve recovery through the use of drugs like methadone and buprenorphine was rejected by many professionals in the eld who saw complete abstinence as the only true sobriety. Many still hold that belief, but attitudes appear to be changing. Top government ocials say they want to increase the amount of MAT taking place at the country’s treatment centers. Several states as well as the federal government have enacted laws making it easier for physicians to prescribe medications like buprenorphine, but they say too few patients receive the medication they need. National Institute on Drug Abuse, in a statement. “is product will expand the treatment alternatives available to people suering from an opioid use disorder.” ] [ "Opioid abuse and addiction have taken a devastating toll on American families.” - Dr. Robert M. Cali, FDA Commissioner “Scientic evidence suggests that maintenance treatment with these medications in the context of behavioral treatment and recovery support are more eective in the treatment of opioid use disorder than short-term detoxication programs aimed at abstinence,” said Dr. Nora Volkow, director of the

edication-assisted treatment is growing in popularity and acceptance among addiction recovery professionals. And now it’s taken a revolutionary step forward that could oer renewed hope to thousands of people struggling with an addiction to opioids. is summer, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved a new buprenorphine implant to treat opioid dependence. Buprenorphine had previously been available only as a pill or a dissolvable lm placed under the tongue. But the new implant, known as Probuphine, can administer a six-month dose of the drug to keep those dependent on opioids from using by reducing cravings and withdrawal symptoms. "Opioid abuse and addiction have taken a devastating toll on American families,” FDA Commissioner Dr. Robert M. Cali said in a statement. “We must do everything we can to make new, innovative treatment options available that can help patients regain control over their lives.” e implant comes in the form of four one-inch rods that are placed under the skin on the upper arm.e implant must be administered surgically and comes with the possibility of certain side eects, but experts say it could be more convenient and more eective for patients.ey say by eliminating the need to take pills, ll prescriptions and generally manage their medication, it makes it easier for people to focus on the other areas of their recovery while making it less likely someone will lapse in their treatment plan.

Brought toyou by:

Although the implant is certainly a new alternative, it has yet to show any increased success in keeping people from relapsing compared to the pill or lm tablet. In a study of the implant’s eectiveness, they found that 63 percent of people given the implant were free of illicit drugs at six months, compared to 64 percent of people who took buprenorphine by pill. Still, those rates are much higher than the success rates of people who follow abstinence-only treatment plans. And ocials hope the new implant will lead more people to get MAT, increasing the number of successful recoveries across the country.

However, Columbia University res archers point out that “choice does not det rmine whether

something is a disease. Heart disease, diabetes and some forms of cancer involve personal choices like diet, exercise, sun exposure, etc. A disease is what happens in the body as a result of those choices.” Experts say that applying the distinction of choice to addiction creates biases that justify inadequate treatment. It begs the question New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie asked during a 2015 town hall meeting in New Hampshire. When Christie’s mother was diagnosed something is a disease.

It begs the question New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie asked uring a 2015 town hall me ting in New Hampshire. When Christie’s mother was diagnosed with lung cancer at 71 as a result of addiction to tobacco, he noted that with lung cancer at 71 as a result of ad iction to tobacco, he noted that

no one suggested that she should not be treated because she was “getting what she deserved,” he said. “Yet somehow, if it’s heroin or cocaine or alcohol, we say, ‘Ahh, they decided that, they’re getting what they deserve,’” Christie remarked. HOW ADDICTION WORKS After satisfying basic human needs like food, water, sleep and safety, people feel pleasure. That pleasure is brought by chemical releases in the brain. This is according to Columbia researchers, who note that the disease of addiction causes the brain to release high levels of those pleasure chemicals. Over time, brain functions of reward, motivation and memory are altered. After these brain systems are compromised, those with addiction can experience intense cravings for substance use, even in the face of harmful consequences. These changes can stay in the brain long after substance use desists. The changes may leave those struggling with addiction to be vulnerable to “physical and environmental cues they associate with substance use, also known as triggers, which can increase their risk of relapse,” write Columbia researchers.
