Following the publication of the original article [1], the authors reported errors in Figure 1 and in a line of Page 3. In the original article, Figure 1 is shown as below.

There was an error with regard to the Large number (150-700); as it should have been (151-700).

Thus, the correct Figure 1 is shown below:

Another error was also found on Page 3 of the Original Article. The second sentence of the second paragraph of the Context of the MMT policy intervention section was read “For MMT clinics with larger capacities that were not eligible for the MCAM, we designated their scale as “large”, i.e., monthly average number of daily participants of 150 to 700.”

The correct sentence is: For MMT clinics with larger capacities that were not eligible for the MCAM, we designated their scale as “large”, i.e., monthly average number of daily participants of 151 to 700.

The original article [1] has been updated.
