National Drug and Alcohol Facts Week (NDAFW) is here, shining a spotlight on substance use disorders (SUD) and their profound implications!  

In conjunction with this vital observance, we're highlighting the transformative role of health information technology (IT) in addressing SUDs. From electronic health records (EHR) tracking treatment progress to telehealth platforms providing remote support, health IT is pivotal in improving access to care, enhancing treatment outcomes, and promoting recovery. 

Join us throughout NDAFW as we explore how innovative technologies can revolutionize SUD prevention, intervention, and recovery efforts. Together, let's harness the power of health IT to empower individuals, support communities, and combat the challenges posed by drugs and alcohol. #NDAFW #HealthITImpact
