Summary
This study tests a program called MIAPP that adds a patient navigator, smartphone check-ins, and small rewards to usual care for people who start buprenorphine for opioid use in the hospital and also use methamphetamine. The goal is to help them connect to outpatient treatment within 30 days and stay on medication for 90 days. The study involves 40 adults and compares the new program to standard care alone.
