Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a primary care-based Interdisciplinary Addiction Care Transition (IntACT) team that will meet patients with substance use disorders (SUD) during a medical hospitalization and provide intensive care management, peer support, and interim SUD and medical care after discharge while facilitating a transition to long term community-based treatment.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

IntACT

Participants randomized to IntACT will receive usual inpatient and outpatient services plus an interdisciplinary addiction care transition team providing: (1) in-hospital discharge planning support, (2) proactive post-discharge outreach and care coordination, (3) intensive care management and peer support, and (4) interim SUD and medical care coordination for up to 4 months post-randomization, with the goal of facilitating transition to longitudinal community-based care.

BEHAVIORAL

Usual Care

Participants randomized to Usual Care will receive standard of care services routinely available at University of Utah Health, including inpatient addiction consult services when ordered, discharge planning by hospital medical and social work teams, and referrals/follow-up options based on insurance and patient preference. Usual Care participants will not receive the structured IntACT intervention components provided in the intervention arm, including proactive post-discharge outreach by the IntACT care manager/peer support specialist, intensive care management, dedicated peer navigation, scheduled interdisciplinary team review, or interim addiction/primary care transition services delivered by the IntACT team as part of the study. If a Usual Care participant independently establishes care with SPARC clinic or other services through standard referral pathways, this will be permitted and will be captured as part of outcome assessment.
