He has provided assistance to programs moving from fixed length of stay, program driven models to variable length of stay, clinically driven models. He is an instructor at many different schools on alcohol and drug studies (Rutgers yearly for 25 years) and the author of over 80 articles and clinical instruments. He is particularly interested in models that maximize treatment dollars.
