Substance Use Disorder
Support Effective Treatment and Client-Centered Care

Providers use Arize in substance use disorder settings to empower collaboration, improve medication management, and promote client-centered care, all while demonstrating strict regulatory compliance.

As the demand for substance use disorder treatment services continues to rise, providers face mounting challenges, including workforce shortages, regulatory compliance, and the complexity of coordinating care across multiple systems. Many organizations struggle with outdated processes and fragmented data, making it difficult to provide timely and effective treatment. A modern, secure, flexible EHR platform that’s built to support these complex needs offers a solution.

Simplify Substance Use Disorder Workflows and Elevate Client Care

Arize is an easy-to-use EHR solution designed to simplify workflows and empower clinical staff to provide the best possible care to all clients. Organizations using Arize in substance use disorder treatment settings can easily complete assessments and clinical documentation, deliver telehealth services, and access client information like treatment plans and medical history. Integrated medication management and dispensing capabilities also help providers maintain efficient workflows and meet rigorous regulatory requirements. Arize also enhances collaboration and information exchange between multi-disciplinary teams, allowing for comprehensive treatment plans that improve client outcomes.

Complete Records and Coordinated Care

Complete Records and Coordinated Care

Clients with substance use disorders require ongoing, coordinated care and interact with multiple providers across different settings and locations. Without a fully integrated EHR system, essential information about their treatment history, medications, and ongoing health issues may not be readily available to each provider, resulting in gaps in care and potential risks like medication errors or redundant treatments.

Arize provides a centralized platform to store and access comprehensive client data, leading to clinically supported decision-making and improved outcomes. Arize offers:
  • Access to client’s charts from any device to deliver care where and when it is needed
  • Interoperability with hospitals, pharmacies, primary care, and other providers
  • Shared care plans across providers, while ensuring data is secure
  • Integrated mental health and substance use disorder treatment
Engage Clients with Ease

Engage Clients with Ease

Clients with substance use disorders feel more engaged and informed when they have access to resources they need when they need them. This can lead to improved adherence to treatment plans, medication management, and follow-up appointments.

Arize integrates client engagement tools into the EHR, enabling clients to participate more fully in their care. Clients can:
  • Securely communicate and share information with providers
  • Easily complete required documentation
  • Look up important details in their clinical records, such as prescribed medications or test results
Maintain Privacy and Minimize Stigma

Maintain Privacy and Minimize Stigma

Substance use disorder data contains highly sensitive information that requires stricter confidentiality protections compared to general healthcare data. Records often include details that could be stigmatizing or harmful if disclosed inappropriately, which could prevent someone from seeking treatment.

Arize includes features that help protect sensitive client information, while still enabling clients to receive care and share information with providers including:
  • Integrated telehealth for remote care
  • Discreet digital records for privacy and secure patient self-service
  • Compliance with 42 CFR Part 2 Regulatory Standards
  • Patients can provide granular consent for sharing only specific portions of their data under certain conditions
Integrated Medication Management

Integrated Medication Management

Organizations that treat clients across a full spectrum of care, inpatient through outpatient, need a single solution that can follow clients throughout their treatments. Integrating these tools within an EHR can help increase efficiency and improve client outcomes, while ensuring accuracy at every step. 

Advanced medication management capabilities offered within Arize represent a significant leap forward in patient safety, including:
  • Manage methadone dispensing and regulatory compliance within the EHR
  • Secure electronic prescriptions
  • Easily address regulatory requirements
