Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT)

Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment, commonly referred to as SBIRT, is an evidence based, comprehensive, integrated approach to the delivery of early intervention and treatment services to people with substance misuse and those at risk of developing disorders.

The goal of SBIRT is to reduce and prevent related health consequences, disease, accidents, and injuries. Risky substance use is a health issue that often goes undetected; providers can help by incorporating this evidence-based tool that is demonstrated to be valid and reliable in identifying individuals with problem use or at risk for a substance use disorder (SUD). For any further discussions regarding SBIRT, please contact your Provider Experience or Provider Relations consultant.
