About

Together, Michigan State University, Wayne State University and Spectrum Health are addressing the need for Addiction Medicine specialists in the state of Michigan. With only 200 Addiction Medicine/Addiction Psychiatry specialists in the state of Michigan, we need more Addiction Medicine specialists to address the addiction crisis.

The MI CARES program is designed to:

  • Educate providers on how to successfully enter the specialty of Addiction Medicine by 2025
  • Properly assess a provider’s current roles and responsibilities and how they can translate to meet the time-in-practice requirements for Addiction Medicine certification
  • Identify areas outside of direct patient care to ensure required hours of experience in Addiction Medicine research, teaching activities and administration are met, utilizing collaborative resources
  • Provide a robust overview of the Addiction Medicine core content for the board exam
  • Provide an efficient and streamlined process for providers applying for Addiction Medicine subspecialty certification
