MAT Non-Pump (OTP) Medication: Recommended Daily Workflow

  • Updated

Non-pump medications are a critical part of MAT services in Opioid Treatment Programs (OTPs). These medications, such as Buprenorphine, Sublocade, and Vivitrol, are dispensed in non-liquid forms and require precise tracking, bottle management, and documentation to meet regulatory requirements. Kipu’s Non-Pump Medication workflows support accurate dispensing, safe storage, and compliant handling of all non-liquid MAT medications.

Required Permissions: Super Admins and users with the Manage Medications Inventory feature can manage non-pump medications from Inventory.

Why Non-Pump Medication Management Matters

Non-pump MAT medications require strict inventory controls to maintain compliance with federal and state guidelines. Clear documentation ensures:

  • Accurate medication counts.
  • Proper handling of controlled substances.
  • Safe administration for patients.
  • Compliance during audits and inspections.

Kipu provides filtering, bottle tracking, real-time status updates, and integrated signatures to support safe, compliant medication workflows.

Use the recommended steps below to navigate from the start-of-day to the end-of-day for non-pump meds.

  1. Start of day: Complete the Start of Day Procedure in the Inventory tab before any non-liquid MAT medication is dispensed.
  2. Prepare the queue: Check patients into the dosing queue.
