NOTES: Survey reference dates were March 31 for 2009, 2011, 2015, and 2017; and March 29 for 2013 and 2019. See Appendix A for changes in the survey base, methods, and instruments that affect analysis of trends over time. Methadone is available only at OTP facilities that are certified by SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment. Buprenorphine may be prescribed by medical practitioners who have received DATA 2000-specific training and received a waiver to prescribe the medication for treatment of opioid use disorder. Naltrexone may be prescribed by any medical practitioner with prescribing privileges. This report does not include clients who were prescribed buprenorphine through an independent DATA 2000-waivered medical practitioner or naltrexone through an independent practitioner not affiliated with a substance abuse treatment facility.

Injectable naltrexone = extended-release injectable naltrexone; MAT = medication assisted treatment.
1 Any MAT type for all facilities providing medication-assisted opioid therapy includes all facilities providing buprenorphine or injectable naltrexone and OTP facilities providing methadone, buprenorphine, or injectable naltrexone.
2 Buprenorphine includes buprenorphine with and without naloxone, buprenorphine sub-dermal implant, and extended-release injectable buprenorphine.
3 The numbers in this category will not sum to the number of all facilities with OTPs because naltrexone only is not included due to the differences in the question asked over the time period.

1 Of 14,270 non-OTP facilities, 3,441 facilities (24 percent) whose client counts were reported by another facility were not asked to respond to these questions. Of the remaining 10,829 non-OTP facilities, 441 facilities (4 percent) that included client counts for other facilities were excluded from tabulations for this table, and thus, tabulations are based on 10,388 facilities that reported client counts for their facility alone. 
NOTES: Methadone is available only at OTP facilities that are certified by SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment. Buprenorphine may be prescribed by medical practitioners who have received DATA 2000-specific training and received a waiver to prescribe the medication for treatment of opioid use disorder. Naltrexone may be prescribed by any medical practitioner with prescribing privileges. This report does not include clients who received or were prescribed buprenorphine through an independent DATA 2000-waivered medical practitioner or naltrexone through an independent practitioner not affiliated with a substance abuse treatment facility.

1 Buprenorphine total is not the sum of buprenorphine with and without naloxone and sub-dermal implant, because a facility can provide one or more forms of buprenorphine.
NOTES: Methadone is available only at OTP facilities that are certified by SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment. Buprenorphine may be prescribed by medical practitioners who have received DATA 2000-specific training and received a waiver to prescribe the medication for treatment of opioid use disorder. Naltrexone may be prescribed by any medical practitioner with prescribing privileges. This report does not include clients who were prescribed buprenorphine through an independent DATA 2000-waivered medical practitioner or naltrexone through an independent practitioner not affiliated with a substance abuse treatment facility.

NOTES: Methadone is available only at OTP facilities that are certified by SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment. Buprenorphine may be prescribed by medical practitioners who have received DATA 2000-specific training and received a waiver to prescribe the medication for treatment of opioid use disorder. Naltrexone may be prescribed by any medical practitioner with prescribing privileges. This report does not include clients who were prescribed buprenorphine through an independent DATA 2000-waivered medical practitioner or naltrexone through an independent practitioner not affiliated with a substance abuse treatment facility.
