Virginia implemented the Addiction Recovery Treatment Services (ARTS) delivery system in April 2017 to increase access to treatment for Medicaid members with opioid and other substance use disorders (SUD).
Our goal is to quantitatively and qualitatively assess the impacts of the program by analyzing changes in SUD treatment access, utilization and costs at six months after implementation of the ARTS benefit.
