MBC2OTP Project (Measurement-Based Care Implementation in Community Opioid Treatment Programs)

United States35 participantsStarted 2024-04-24

Plain-language summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of measurement-based care, which involves the systematic use of client self-report data to inform and enhance treatment, in opioid treatment programs using a pilot hybrid effectiveness-implementation study design. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1) is measurement based care effective for improving patient treatment attendance and opioid abstinence, and 2) can measurement based care be implemented with fidelity in opioid treatment programs? Participants in this study will be opioid treatment program leaders and treatment providers. Leaders and treatment providers will participate in measurement-based care implementation strategies such as training and consultation to help them use measurement-based care with their patients. There is no comparison group for this study, however researchers will compare effectiveness outcomes prior to and post measurement-based care implementation and will evaluate changes in measurement-based care use with fidelity post implementation.

Inclusion Criteria (Opioid Treatment Program Leaders): * Provide supervision or oversight to treatment providers or provide administrative oversight at the OTP * Conduct supervision or oversight primarily in English Inclusion Criteria (Opioid Treatment Program Providers): * Are considered a treatment provider at the OTP providing direct patient care * Conduct treatment primarily in English Exclusion Criteria (Opioid Treatment Program Leaders and Providers): * Exclusion criteria are minimal to enhance generalizability and enable participation of all leaders and treatment providers overseeing or delivering care at each opioid treatment program. Providers and leaders will be excluded if they do not conduct treatment in English, as the measurement-based care assessment tool is written in the English language. Inclusion Criteria (Persons receiving treatment at Opioid Treatment Programs \[Not recruited, via electronic medical records only\]): * Must be a new patient at the opioid treatment program in the 6 months pre or post measurement-based care implementation Exclusion Criteria (Persons receiving treatment at Opioid Treatment Programs \[Not recruited, via electronic medical records only\]): * Younger than 18 years of age * Does not have electronic medical records

What they're measuring

Patient treatment attendance (effectiveness outcome)

Timeframe: Assessed for 6 months for each patient both pre and post measurement based care implementation. Data will be extracted from the opioid treatment program electronic medical record.
