This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), provides $844,475 to the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) to test a bundled intervention to increase treatment uptake for patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) and nonfatal opioid overdoses after emergency department (ED) discharge.

The key products and services to be delivered include: 1) a pilot feasibility study (R61 phase) of a bundled intervention involving telehealth, peer support, buprenorphine treatment, and linkage to community-based addiction programs for 30 patients, and 2) a randomized controlled trial (R33 phase) to evaluate the intervention's impact on increasing treatment uptake, treatment retention, and reducing opioid overdoses and ED revisits compared to usual care for 160 patients. This research aims to address the critical unmet need for effective interventions to improve treatment engagement and outcomes for this high-risk patient population after ED discharge.
