First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether using regular patient surveys to guide treatment can help people with opioid use disorder stay in treatment and stop using opioids. Researchers worked with 35 clinic leaders and providers to train them on this approach. They compared patient attendance and drug tests before and after the training to see if it made a difference.
