Treatments for Opioid Addiction Require Expertise and Innovation

For clinics providing office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) and opioid treatment programs (OTP), finding purpose-built software that supports medication-assisted treatment is essential. Managing complex workflows, strict state and federal regulations, and patient needs requires smart, adaptable technology. The right software enables clinics to operate with optimal efficiency, helping them reach more patients in need of critical care.

What is Medication-Assisted Treatment?

Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) software is a specialized tool designed to support healthcare providers in administering medication-assisted treatments for patients in OBOT and OTP settings. This technology offers a comprehensive range of features that help optimize treatment management by streamlining workflows, reducing administrative burden, and ensuring regulatory compliance. Learn more about the ongoing debate on MAT and its role in addiction treatment here.

Key Benefits of Using Medication-Assisted Treatment Software

Integrating medication-assisted treatment (MAT) software into OBOT and OTP operations brings a wide range of benefits, including:

  • Improved patient care: Streamlined processes allow more time for patient interactions and better care coordination.
  • Streamlined operations: Automated workflows reduce the administrative burden on staff, increasing clinic efficiency.
  • Enhanced regulatory compliance: Built-in tools ensure that clinics meet state and federal requirements, reducing the risk of non-compliance.
  • Better patient outcomes: By reducing wait times and optimizing care delivery, clinics can improve the overall treatment experience for patients.
  • Cost savings: Increased operational efficiency and compliance reduce waste and potential fines, leading to significant cost savings for clinics.

Incorporating MAT software enables providers to focus more on what matters most—helping patients on their journey to recovery.

How Our Medication-Assisted Treatment Software Helps OBOT and OTP

Kipu EMR software was developed in collaboration with MAT providers to enable clinics to shift focus from manual administrative processes to patient-centered care.

How Kipu’s Electronic Medical Records (EMR) System Works for MAT

Efficient Dosing and Dispensing

Accurately manage all types of medication orders including standard or custom, tapers or titrations, interval, split doses, as well as exception orders for current or future dates with ease. Our intuitive MAT log details dose administration and patient no-shows in a sortable table within the patient’s chart. This boosts provider efficiency and patient care by allowing flexible and precise medication handling. Ready-touse integration is available with SciLog and Ivek dispensing pumps, as well as options for manual dispensing.

Automated Call Back Diversion Control

Integrate stringent DEA-compliant diversion controls into your workflow. This tool automates patient selection for medication counts, sends SMS reminders, and logs results directly into the patient’s chart, boosting compliance and patient accountability.

Queue Management and Self Check-in

Enhance patient flow and streamline check-ins with our self-service kiosk, allowing patients to check themselves in and be directed to the appropriate queue. Our unique queue system—including customizable queues—manages patient check-ins, collects payments, and tracks waiting time, all while maintaining privacy. Additionally, the optional waiting area display keeps patients informed of their place in the line with audio announcements—improving operational efficiency and the patient experience.

Integrated e-Prescribing

Enhance safety and streamline operations with our e-prescribing system powered by DrFirst. This feature allows direct electronic prescribing within one system, providing access to Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) data and reducing medication abuse risks.

Inventory Management and Compliance

Opening and end-of-day inventory management tools helps you efficiently track and report bulk and pre-pour (unit) medication inventory at the transaction level. Kipu ensures strict compliance with the United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) regulations through our reporting, which tracks every transaction for precise inventory management. This tool is essential for daily audits, inventory reconciliation, and fulfilling agency requests, providing a clear and compliant audit trail that simplifies legal obligations and enhances operational integrity.

Advanced Reporting Capabilities

Our comprehensive reporting tools offer detailed insights into inventory management, patient monitoring, and compliance. These analytics help you track progress, coordinate care, and make informed decisions, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing wait times.
