From Dropout to 90% Retention: Real Results from Contingency Management in MAT

When: March 18, 2pm EST

Treatment dropout is one of the most persistent challenges in opioid and stimulant use disorder care. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) can reduce mortality by 60%, but only when patients stay engaged. The reality? Many patients access medication but disengage from the counseling and therapy that is essential for lasting recovery.

Porch Light Health and CHESS Health are proud to co-present this webinar to share a real-world example of a provider’s innovative approach to dramatically improving retention and program adherence rates – and the tools they used to accomplish it.

Discover how Porch Light Health determined contingency management was the right approach, implemented it across 15 locations, and secured funding through opioid settlement dollars. Learn from their operational insights and remarkable outcomes to date, including a 294% increase in behavioral health visits, 30% improvement in MAT compliance, and 90% retention for patients in comprehensive care. Plus, experience a live demo of the CHESS Health Rewards Engine, the tool used to automate contingency management and build a scalable, sustainable program.
