Any resources we can leverage

Hello,

Can we get access to any API or resources? ie. the Substance Abuse Treatment locator API or source code.

Do you have any data what the current scheduling regiment is, so we can apply that into a digital format?

Any dummy data we can use?

In my opinion, for this app challenge to be effective and successful, the developers need to have transparency of data we can leverage and utilize. I understand there might be HIPAA contraints, hence the dummy data.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The two main "resources" would be links to the SAMHSA treatment locator and the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline phone # (1800-273-8255). The scheduling would be dependant on different service providers, thus call for how one would potentially utilize these services (MH and other related). The main focus, however, is the area of continuity after ED D/C. We unfortunately do not have any scheduling regiments as the providers are not government entities.

    James - do you know if the treatment locator data is available for download or via an API? I assume we are talking about this - http://findtreatment.samhsa.gov/MHTreatmentLocator/faces/quickSearch.jspx - which is not yet mobile friendly.

    Thanks,

    We unfortunately have not completed our API but will in the near future.
