Summary

The study is a 1-arm prospective interventional cohort quasi-experimental with retrospective control group. Enrolled participants will be compared to previously established mobile health patients, who did not work with a peer recovery coach, for buprenorphine treatment and adherence outcomes. 90 patients will be recruited from the mobile health units in rural counties in Upstate South Carolina. Visits consist of a baseline and 3 month follow up.

The study will focus to develop, deliver, and evaluate an innovative 1) Peer Support Specialist (PSS) intervention to increase Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) initiation and retention rates in rural populations and underserved communities, and 2) dynamic modeling framework to prioritize at-risk communities for delivery of Mobile Health Clinics. the interventions will be developed in the R61 phase and implemented in a pilot study to determine the effectiveness on initiation and retention. With opioid overdose deaths continuing to rise in South Carolina (SC) and nationally, our sustainable framework has potential to prevent hundreds to thousands of opioid overdoses in SC and can be scaled up in other regions to save many more lives.

Peer Support Checklist

Peer support specialists are Certified Peer Support Specialists (CPSS) who have lived experience with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and OUD recovery. Peer support specialists offer consistent personalized recovery support and generalized social support. Peer support specialists will maintain contact and provide support for the participant for six-months post-baseline. CPSS will utilize the newly developed checklist from earlier phases of the project to provide patient support.
