Practices are being recruited for a study comparing office-based, home induction, and observed telehealth methods for medication assisted treatment (MAT) in patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) or opioid dependence.
The State Network of Colorado Ambulatory Practices and Partners (SNOCAP) and the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) National Research Network are conducting this study to better understand if one induction method works better and to determine if certain patient and practice characteristics make patients better candidates for one method over the other. Study results will help fill a gap in the evidence around effectively treating OUD with MAT in primary care settings, allowing providers, practices, and patients to make an informed choice on the best induction method.
