First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study tests whether a set of strategies to improve coordination between emergency departments and outpatient clinics helps people with opioid use disorder stay on buprenorphine longer. About 3,500 adults who start buprenorphine in the ER will be followed for up to 12 months. The goal is to see if better care transitions lead to more consistent medication use and fewer gaps in treatment.
