About Unhooked

The Path to Overcoming the Opioid Addiction Crisis For over twenty years, America's opioid addiction crisis has been spiraling out of control-and the COVID-19 pandemic just made matters worse. Even though billions of dollars are spent annually on substance use disorder (SUD) treatment, the patient numbers keep climbing-because of a misguided focus on episodic health emergencies rather than long-term care that's proven to be much more effective and cost-efficient. Clearly, it's time for a radically new approach, and in Unhooked, healthcare experts Chris Powell and Dr. Jill Warrington deliver just that. Their new revolutionary holistic care strategy is built around a multipronged policy that: - removes the stigma of opioid addiction by treating it as a chronic illness, not human weakness; - leverages data and analytics to provide more comprehensive individual care; - removes common barriers to recovery; - reduces the cost of care; - creates equity for SUD and behavioral health management; and - identifies prevention strategies that can block disease progression. Most importantly, Powell and Warrington outline a practical step-by-step strategy to inspire and implement change in your organization. If society is truly to become unhooked, this book provides a proven path to wellness that can get the job done.
