Peter Treitler is an Assistant Professor at Boston University School of Social Work. His research aims to improve the well-being of people with substance use disorders and inform more effective solutions to the nation's critical substance use challenges. He examines implementation outcomes in health services for people with substance use disorders and how federal and state payer policies shape treatment and recovery experiences. Treitler studies interventions that engage individuals in correctional facilities, emergency departments, and primary care clinics while evaluating policies that support their implementation in various settings. His research employs mixed methods, combining analyses of large administrative datasets such as Medicare and Medicaid claims with qualitative perspectives from service users, providers, and policymakers. Treitler's interests are partly motivated by his prior experience as a substance abuse and mental health clinician, working with individuals transitioning from incarceration. His work has received support from organizations like the National Institute on Drug Abuse and has been featured in prestigious publications including JAMA Health Forum, Journal of General Internal Medicine, and Journal of Substance Use & Addiction Treatment. From 2020 to 2021, Treitler was a member of the NIH Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN) Learning Experiences Advance Practice (LEAP) Investigator Program, which is designed to provide mentorship and advanced research skills to investigators working at the intersection of substance use disorders and the criminal-legal system.
