NCT03568552

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to test the effectiveness of the Patient Decision Aid for Opioid Use Disorder (PtDA-MAT) by conducting a stepped-wedge cluster-randomized trial in CA H\&SS (stratified by rural vs. non-rural areas) for adults with OUD. Patient outcomes will be tracked by (1) personal assessments (baseline, 3 months, and 6 months): drug use, overdose, healthcare utilization, and (2) clinical and administrative records (over approximately 24 months): drug treatment status and retention, physical and mental health diagnoses, arrest, incarceration, controlled substance use, and mortality. Multilevel models will be applied to test the intervention effects, controlling for possible temporal trends.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Treatment Retention

    Treatment retention will be defined as time from initial treatment admission to either MAT discontinuation or most recent clinic visit followed by 2 months gap in treatment

    24 months

  • Opioid Use at 3 months

    Self-reported days of opioid use in past 4 weeks

    3 months

  • Opioid Use at 6 months

    Self-reported days of opioid use in past 4 weeks

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Substance Use

    24 months

  • Treatment Adherence

    24 months

  • Mortality

    24 months

Study Arms (2)

Patient Decision Aid

EXPERIMENTAL

Participating clinics (and their patients) will be randomly selected to implement the intervention, at which time their patients will receive Patient Decision Aid for Medication Assisted Treatment for opioid use disorder.

Behavioral: Patient Decision Aid

Prior to intervention

NO INTERVENTION

All participating clinics will start with a baseline period without the intervention. The clinics and their patients will remain in the no intervention condition until randomly selected to crossover to receive the intervention.

Interventions

PtDA-MAT will provide information on MAT treatment options and pros and cons of each treatment option, and will assess patients' preferred options.

Model Details: The Patient Decision Aid for Medication Assisted Therapy (PtDA-MAT) will be tested by patients and clinicians during actual visits with OUD patients to assess its acceptability and effectiveness. We will track patients receiving PtDAT-MAT using their clinical and administration data over a 24-month period to assess outcomes associated with PtDAT-MAT. Participating clinics will be randomly selected in sequence to implement the intervention.
