Community Impact & Patient Outcomes

2025 Report Findings

The 2025 Patient Outcomes Report provides a nationwide view of CMS’s impact over the previous calendar year. Across the communities CMS serves, our mission is bigger than access to medication alone. It is about improving the social determinants of health that influence long-term recovery, including housing stability, employment, health access, community connection, and overall well-being.

Metrics That Matter

Recovery is a long-term process, and meaningful outcomes often build over time. That is why CMS looks beyond a single appointment or test result to measure patient engagement, retention in care, changes in substance use trends, and improvements in the social factors that affect health.

Thirty-day retention is one of the most important early indicators of treatment engagement. When patients remain connected to care during the first month, they have more opportunities to receive medication support, counseling, harm reduction resources, and connection to services that may help them stabilize.

National urinalysis trends also help CMS identify shifts in the drug supply, monitor emerging risks, and support clinical decision-making. These data points allow CMS teams to respond with evidence-based care, patient education, and timely intervention.

State-by-State Impact

State-specific outcomes reports were completed this year not for every state in which we provide care, but for those with the highest level of statistical significance. If you do not see your state below, refer to the national report for average data company-wide.

The Key Pillars of 2025

Screening is an important part of whole-person care. By identifying health needs earlier, CMS can help connect patients to education, follow-up care, and support that may otherwise be delayed or missed.

HIV/Hepatitis C Screenings

In 2025, CMS continued to strengthen its screening capabilities through lab services and clinical workflows designed to support early detection and intervention.

Social Determinants of Health

Measuring social determinants of health at intake helps CMS better understand patient needs and connect people with support that extends beyond medication.

Weekly Dosing Stats

Weekly dosing data shows how patients progress through care, how treatment plans evolve over time, and how CMS supports individualized treatment based on clinical need.

A Message from Our CEO

“As a certified B Corporation, CMS continues to stand apart in the healthcare landscape. We believe that we have a responsibility that extends beyond the bottom line—a responsibility to our patients, our employees, and the communities we serve.

As we reflect on the past year at Community Medical Services (CMS), I am reminded that our work is measured not just in clinical outcomes, but in the quiet, profound moments of human connection that occur within our walls every day. This year, we have seen that recovery is possible, that hope is resilient, and that business—when guided by empathy and ethical responsibility—can be a powerful force for good.”
