Measure
OARSCM Patients
After successful completion of usability testing (Patients: n=12, Providers: n=4), a proof-of-concept field test was completed. OARSCM patients (n = 10) received TAU procedures during enrollment (SBIRT for opioid use disorder and a warm handoff to outpatient MOUD treatment). TAU outpatient MOUD treatment consists of urine toxicology (Utox) screening, group/individual therapy, and MOUD prescription. Treatment visits are typically weekly in weeks 1-4 and taper over time. Patients earned chances for prizes, for targeted behaviors, which escalated for each targeted behavior in a row, with reset criteria. For scheduling a MOUD treatment intake, patients will earn 2 chances for prizes. Chances for prizes will increase by 2 chances with each targeted behavior in a row up to a max of 10 draws/targeted behavior. There are 18 targeted behaviors during the 4-week field test (schedule intake, complete intake, 4 opioid-negative Utox/week plus bonuses for cocaine-negative Utox, and 4 therapy/week). Software Application: Access is granted to participants for 4 weeks to the OARSCM platform which includes reinforcements for meeting MOUD treatment goals.
