NOFO Title: Administrative Supplements to Existing NIH Grants and Cooperative Agreements (Parent Admin Supp Clinical Trial Optional)
NOFO Number: PA-18-591
Summary:

There is a significant treatment gap between patients diagnosed with OUD and those who seek treatment, and only a small proportion of those seeking treatment receive MOUD. Primary care is the most common point of health care contact in the U.S. and is an important venue to address stigma, improve access to treatment and improve quality of care. Over the past decade, electronic health record (EHR)-linked Web-based point-of-care clinical decision support (CDS) systems designed to improve quality of chronic disease care have become increasingly sophisticated and successful. A Web-based and EHR-integrated OUD CDS system to offer expert guidance to primary care providers (PCPs) on the diagnosis and management of OUD was developed and piloted. This project will implement the OUD clinical decision support system in three large diverse health care systems and randomize a minimum of 30 clinics to receive the OUD-CDS intervention or usual care (UC). The project will evaluate the impact of OUD CDS on practice process measures and patient outcomes. The study will also prepare for scalability and dissemination by evaluating facilitators and barriers to implementation, determining the costs of implementation and maintenance and assessing the short-term cost impacts of the OUD-CDS.

NOFO Number: PA-18-591
Summary:

Hospital inpatient stays due to opioid-related health problems are a reachable moment for increasing access to treatment with medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD). Hospitalized patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) are at particularly high risk for morbidity, mortality, and high medical costs in the U.S. This study will substantially inform the care management of OUD in hospitalized patients. The project includes a comparative effectiveness research trial and an implementation research trial, which will lead to models of broad dissemination for treatment approaches to this largely unaddressed population. They will examine whether (1) in hospitals with addiction medicine consultation services, hospital-initiated extended-release buprenorphine (XR-BUP), compared with other OUD medications, results in increased engagement in treatment with MOUD following hospital discharge and (2) training hospitals without such consultation services on best practices for initiating MOUD using consultation service hubs improves medication uptake in hospitals and increased MOUD treatment engagement following discharge.

Summary:

This health care data mining study analyzes existing Veterans Health Administration data sets to examine patient and organizational characteristics associated with buprenorphine termination during outpatient OUD treatment. This project will generate data useful for predictive modeling on how to implement targeted approaches to improve retention in OUD treatment. An objective is to identify patient, provider and system targets to reduce unnecessary or inappropriate discontinuation of buprenorphine care. These analyses are critical for establishing initial constructs to evaluate reasons for treatment discontinuation based upon patient, provider and system factors in different health care settings.
