The addiction workforce faces many challenges, from limited capacity to meet the growing demand for treatment services to inadequate financial and professional incentives to enter and remain in the workforce. As a result of these challenges, individuals with substance use disorder experience disparities in care compared to those with a physical ailment. In this third and final episode of the Charting the Way podcast miniseries, Abt’s Leigh Fischer and Mt. Sinai’s Tim Brennan discuss opportunities to advance the field of addiction medicine, integrate approaches across physical and behavioral health, and unify the workforce to better prevent and address substance use disorders.
