This study examines whether the mechanism through which a methadone maintenance treatment site offers seven treatment-related and support services is related to whether a patient receives such services. Mechanisms include the provision of services on-site, at another program site, or through formal or informal linkage arrangements. Analysis was conducted on a nationally representative sample of methadone treatment sites. Providing services on-site was found to be positively related to patient access to a majority of services, whereas, in general, offering services at another program site or through formal or informal linkages was not found to be effective. Not-for-profit or public ownership of treatment sites was also found to be positively related to patient access.
本研究考察了美沙酮维持治疗场所提供七种与治疗相关的支持性服务的机制，是否与患者接受这些服务有关。这些机制包括在场所内、在其他项目场所或通过正式或非正式的联系安排来提供服务。对全国具有代表性的美沙酮治疗场所样本进行了分析。结果发现，在场所内提供服务与患者获得大多数服务呈正相关，而一般来说，在其他项目场所或通过正式或非正式联系来提供服务则没有效果。研究还发现，治疗场所的非营利性或公有制也与患者获得服务呈正相关。
