AMERICAN SOCIETY OF ADDICTION MEDICINE (ASAM) ECHO
What is ECHO?
Project ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) is a collaborative model of medical education and care management that empowers clinicians everywhere to provide better care to more people, right where they live. The ECHO model™ does not actually “provide” care to patients. Instead, it dramatically increases access to specialty treatment in rural and underserved areas by providing front-line clinicians with the knowledge and support they need to manage patients with complex conditions. Learn more about the model. |
What is ASAM?
This ECHO series is based on information found in The ASAM Criteria: Treatment Criteria for Addictive, Substance-Related, and Co-Occurring Conditions, Third Edition and incorporates an opportunity for participants to learn and apply the information through a short didactic presentation and case-based activities. |
