Medication Assisted Treatment is a three-year (August 2015-July 2018) $3 million grant awarded to the Iowa Department of Public Health and funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration; Center for Substance Abuse Treatment. MAT is an evidenced-based practice used to treat disordered use of opioids and alcohol. Best practices show that effectiveness is highest when medications and traditional substance abuse treatment/counseling are implemented together.
