Although both ACHESS and TMC use telephone technology, they have complementary strengths. ACHESS provides a range of automated 24/7 recovery support services, but does not include contact with a counselor. TMC, on the other hand, provides regular and sustained contact with the same counselor, but does not provide support between calls. The future of continuing care for alcohol use disorders is likely to involve both automated mobile technology and counselor contact, but little is known about how best to integrate these services.
