The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) awarded a K24 Midcareer Investigator Award in Patient-Oriented Research totaling $217,751 to Massachusetts General Hospital (the awardee is The General Hospital Corporation, doing business as MGH) under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279). The award, effective May 1, 2026 through April 30, 2031, supports research to establish a quality measurement framework for youth opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment. The principal investigator, Dr. Scott Hadland, will develop valid and reliable quality measures usable by clinicians, health systems, and policymakers to ensure youth and families receive effective OUD treatment. The research employs a three-phase approach: identifying candidate measures through semi-structured interviews with youth, family members, and clinicians; conducting a modified Delphi process with a national stakeholder panel to assess measure importance, feasibility, and usability; and evaluating reliability and validity using national Medicaid claims data and clinical data from a large regional healthcare system. In parallel with the research activities, the award supports career development and mentorship infrastructure expansion. Dr. Hadland will pursue specialized training in stakeholder-engaged research, Delphi methods, and measurement science while enhancing his mentorship program to support early-career clinician-investigators conducting patient-oriented research on youth substance use. This comprehensive approach addresses critical gaps in measuring and improving OUD treatment quality for adolescents and young adults, positioning the funded work to establish a foundation for optimized measurement, reporting, and improvement of youth OUD care delivery nationwide.Federal Grant Award Summary
