SUMMARY:ECRI Institute Conference on Health Systems and Addiction
DESCRIPTION:“Health Systems and Addiction: The Use and Misuse of Legal Substances” is a free\, status-taking conference designed for a broad audience. It is appropriate for providers who specialize in addiction\, but primarily targets health system executives\, practitioners\, researchers and policy makers who are seeking a greater understanding of substance use disorders and the role health systems play within acute-care and community-based care settings. \nPublic and payment policies shape how these institution-based systems act and this will be carefully examined. National thought leaders will bring evidence and insights on the scientific understanding of addiction\, innovations in the prevention of misuse of legal substances\, and initiatives to treat and manage addiction. \nJoin us in overcoming one of our nation’s most important public health concerns. \nPress are encouraged and welcome to attend. For details and registration\, visit www.ecri.org/2016conf.
