What is WITS?
Web Infrastructure for Treatment Services (WITS) is a web based and open-source application designed to meet the growing needs to capture client treatment data and satisfy mandatory government reporting requirements for the planning, administration, and monitoring of Substance Abuse Treatment Programs. Sponsored by SAMHSA’s Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) and State AOD Agencies, WITS facilitates cooperation and collaboration among treatment providers by enabling the sharing of client treatment information via the web.

Electronic Health Record System
Although originally designed as a substance abuse treatment services data collection and management system, WITS has evolved as an advanced Electronic Health Record System (EHR) to meet the growing needs of organizations and government institutions. As an EHR system, WITS is capable of handling multiple simultaneous users and thousands of patient’s records. With a feature rich set of tools, WITS can assist in creating and managing clients, staff, facilities and agencies collecting treatment data, complete with the safety and security of HIPAA compliant software.
