Summary

This study looks at whether a short program with a nurse case manager can help people leaving prison get medical care instead of going to the emergency room. About 488 adults with a history of substance use and a chronic health condition will take part. Some will get extra help from a nurse, while others will get the usual care. The main goal is to see if more people see a doctor outside the ER within 60 days of release.
