Department Description
The Opiate Treatment Outpatient Program (OTOP) and the mobile
methadone van provide methadone maintenance and other adjunctive
services to people with opioid use disorder. The OTOP Jail
Methadone Program provides methadone intake, induction and
maintenance services within the SF County Jail system.
The target population for OTOP's methadone maintenance service is
low-income people with opioid use disorder who reside in San
Francisco, primarily in the South of Market, Mission, Castro, and
Tenderloin areas. This includes a large proportion of African
Americans and Latinos, gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender
individuals, and women of childbearing age, pregnant women, and
post-partum women. The target population includes people of all
ages, races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities,
religions or spiritualities, socioeconomic classes, partner
statuses, and physical and mental disabilities. OTOP clients are
low-income and primarily insured by Medicaid or Medicare. Patients
have multiple comorbid conditions including other substance use
disorders, medical and mental health issues, and are impacted by a
range of challenging social determinants of health.This population
has a relatively high risk for HIV and Hepatitis C.
