Despite the high numbers of veterans with opioid dependence, few receive pharmacologic treatment for this disorder. The adoption of buprenorphine treatment within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) has been slow. To expand capacity for buprenorphine treatment, the VHA sponsored two eight-hour credentialing courses for the Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000. We sought to describe the outcomes of such training. Following the training sessions, 29 participants (18 physicians) were highly satisfied with course content and affirmed their intention to prescribe buprenorphine; after nine-month follow-up, two physicians were prescribing. We conclude that providing credentialing courses, while popular, did not markedly promote the prescription of buprenorphine.
