Abstract
No longer can opioid treatment programs (OTPs) summarily discharge patients for non‐payment, use of drugs or other reasons having to do with anything other than safety, at least not in New York. Most OTPs never did this, especially in New York, but the publication last month of new guidance from the state's Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) clearly delineates the circumstances under which a patient can be discharged against their will.
