Summary

The purpose of this study is to pilot test a smartphone application that allows video-based directly observed therapy for participants receiving buprenorphine treatment for opioid use disorder in office-based settings. This application may help participants take their medication more regularly so that they are successful in treatment. Participants will be randomly assigned to either using a smartphone application that allows them to take daily videos confirming their buprenorphine medication ingestion or they will continue with their care as usual (treatment-as-usual or TAU). The primary study outcome will be the percentage of weekly study urine drug tests that are negative for opiates between baseline and 12 weeks post-randomization. The secondary outcome will be engagement in treatment at week 12.
