Article	New Systems of Care for Substance Use Disorders by David R. Pating, MD, Michael M. Miller, MD, Eric Goplerud, PhD, MA, Judith Martin, MD, Douglas M. Ziedonis, MD This 4-part report examines new systems of care for substance use conditions under health reform. Briefly reviews the prevailing general system of care for the treatment for substance-related conditions. Provides a detailed exploration of the emerging systems of publicly and privately funded substance use disorders treatment, which?driven by new insurance regulations and new mechanisms for payment reimbursement?will change significantly under health care reform. Examines 3 case studies of expanded care for clinically distinct subsets of patients?those with unhealthy substance use who do not yet have addiction (persons with hazardous use), those with the highest recent rate of increase in mortality among substance use disorders (persons with opioid addiction), and those with the highest overall incidence of substance-related deaths (persons with nicotine addiction)?to examine how persons with different disorders should be able to receive better, more frequent care through federally mandated health care reforms. Examines how health information technology systems will drive substance use disorders treatment toward greater connectivity, accountability, and improved outcomes. Embedded throughout this discussion are recommendations to transform the care for substance use disorders under health care reform. These recommendations are offered with a caveat: although the authors are all experts in their field, no amount of evidence-based forecasting can capture the enormous change and complexity that we anticipate will result from health care reform. Instead, we are humbled by the complex fabric of overlapping systems, which will form the new system of care for the treatment of substance use disorders as the US health care system evolves toward increased affordability and accountability.
