What we do

Our work is focused on three pillars, where our professional and personal experiences can deliver the greatest impact.

Analyzing an intervention’s long-term impact

Projecting long-term impacts and costs

Our measurement methodology is based on STAMINA, SUDenomics’ state-transition modeling of addiction as a chronic disease. It projects how a population may move between use, treatment and recovery, and what each path means for long-term health, public resources, and economics.

It works by building a realistic base-case scenario and measuring comparative impacts from evidence-based interventions. This enables the comparison of many different treatments or programs on a similar basis.

How the modeling works

Evaluating the status quo

Diagnostics

A focused diagnostic of a program or system as it stands: where the resources go, how they contribute to positive health outcomes, and laying the foundation for potential transformation.

Prioritization and execution

Strategy and transformation

Addiction interventions can come in many forms, both within the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) continuum of care and more broadly in the community. Determining the ideal path forward – even with the best available data – is often ambiguous, while implementation may have unexpected hurdles.

  • Long-term strategic initiatives
  • Business case for funders and payers
  • Implementation planning and support

Who we work with

Public health agencies and governments

Evaluating potential long-term impacts for public or grantee programs, and how to communicate these impacts more broadly.

Health plans and payers

Testing whether a program cost is driving the anticipated positive health and economic impacts over several years.

Treatment providers

Determining what to offer, evaluating funding opportunities, and executing on a plan.

Funders and innovators

Assessing whether a model of care creates value, for whom, and whether it can lead to sustainable impact on the most relevant metrics.
