Arkansas DHS: OakTree Practice Management System
OakTree Collaborative (in partnership with Orion Healthcare Technology) has implemented a web-based credential management, supervision and professional development software system, specifically for the Peer Recovery Support Specialists in the state of Arkansas. This partnership will help build the foundation for a model that will positively impact the professional development and growth of peer recovery specialists (as well as addictions, substance use disorder and mental health professionals) in the state of Arkansas.
Custom Development: Youth Outcome Measurement System (YOMS)
Indian Health Service and Tribal Youth Regional Treatment Centers contracted with Orion to develop a custom application to capture and analyze information on youth demographics, cultural identity, treatment efficacy and other outcome factors. The data can be utilized for comparative analysis, outcome reporting, program planning, community awareness, prevention strategies and service utilization, among others.
Local Evaluator: Systems of Care for American Indian/Alaska Native
Orion served as the local evaluator for multiple tribal programs through a federal Methamphetamine and Suicide Prevention Initiative. The goal of the initiative is to implement effective models for methamphetamine and suicide reduction.
CSAT Turtle Island Initiative for American Indian/Alaska Native
Orion was awarded a five-year demonstration project through the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) with the primary goal of empowering American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) behavioral health treatment centers toward improving Medicaid billing while incorporating best practices treatment protocols. This model is designed to be replicated so other programs can incorporate performance-oriented treatment that encompasses clinical best practices while fitting the needs of the treatment center’s culture and community.
Centralized Data Collection and Reporting: Aberdeen Area Office of IHS
Goal of project was to enhance data reporting by Native American treatment providers in the Aberdeen Area. Implemented data export capabilities within the existing EHR used across 24+ different tribal treatment centers for a common core data set and created data analysis tools to provide high-level summary reports. Also assisted with data analysis on outcomes of reports.
Workforce Development Survey and Implementation:
Orion worked with County Alcohol and Drug Program Administrators Association of California (CAADPAC) to develop and implement an online workforce development survey. The goal of project is to assess current workforce development issues in all 58 counties and develop new knowledge that will help improve the preparation and recruitment of new treatment professionals, increase the retention of existing staff in treatment settings and identify agency and workforce development needs.
Nebraska Division of Behavioral Health: Centralized Data System
The SOMMS project was a federally funded project that was awarded to Orion for several different states and federal jurisdictions including: North Dakota, Nebraska, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, Guam and the Federated States of Micronesia.

Access to Recovery (ATR) Initiative
Orion were selected by two different tribal grantees that were awarded the ATR Grant as a nationwide presidential initiative to provide choice to individuals who are seeking recovery from substance abuse. The goal of the project was to develop and implement a custom designed, web-based voucher management software system to manage over $30 million dollar budget for client treatment and recovery support services. Full custom software development and interoperability, consulting, project management and dedicated help desk support were provided.
About the ATR Initiative: President Bush, in his 2003 State of the Union Address, announced a new three-year, federal treatment initiative, Access to Recovery (ATR). ATR was designed to help Americans that are suffering from substance abuse and addiction. These afflicted Americans are to get help to find treatment by providing vouchers to individuals seeking assistance. Achieving recovery is a personal pathway that can include: physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual paths. With a voucher, people in need of addiction treatment and recovery support are given the choice to select the programs and providers that will help them the most. The idea behind this initiative was to give more choices to protect these individuals and encourage quality in their recovery. Learn more about the ATR Initiative here. Indian Health Service (IHS) - National Data Warehouse FTP Export
The National Data Warehouse is a centralized data collection and reporting system administered by IHS for tribal and urban treatment agencies to send client registration and service data.
