AzMAT Mentors Program  

Experienced MAT providers

Our community is experiencing a high number of fatal overdoses and access to medication assisted treatment (MAT) is limited. The Arizona Department of Health Services and the Arizona Center for Rural Health created the AzMAT Mentors Program to offer support to DATA-waived MAT providers. Through this collaboration, experienced MAT providers will be compensated to assist less experienced MAT providers to overcome the barriers that limit MAT services.  

Experienced provider requirements:

• Be a licensed or DATA-waived MAT provider in Arizona with experience delivering the continuum of MAT services for at least one year or have treated at least 20 patients
• Participate in AzMAT Mentors program training
• Collaborate with one to two new MAT providers through one-to-one consultation
• Follow Arizona Center for Rural Health AzMAT Mentors Program implementation protocols
• Submit documentation for reimbursement
• Participate for an estimate of 20-37 hours. 

This is a paid opportunity for experienced MAT providers.

If you are interested, please take a couple of minutes to complete the interest form and they will be in contact soon.

Less experienced or new MAT providers
