Using The ECHO Model to Improve Texas Hospital Infrastructure to Support Patients With Opioid Use Disorder
Third Thursday of Each Month
The Texas Hospital Association is collaborating with the Support Hospital Opioid Use Treatment Texas program at Dell Medical School to raise awareness, provide resources, and share best practices about identifying and managing opioid use disorder during acute hospitalization. See below for an overview of the free SHOUT Texas programs.
ECHO® (Extension for Community Health Outcomes) uses videoconferencing to connect participants to a multidisciplinary team of peers and experts. Developed initially to link remote health care workers to clinical sub-specialists, SHOUT Texas is adapting the platform to create a forum to share knowledge, build community, and expand treatment access for hospitalized patients with opioid use disorder. Each month, SHOUT Texas will offer a brief didactic from content experts, a short case presentation illustrating a challenge faced by hospital-based clinical care teams, and an interactive discussion with panelists and participants.
