Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric trauma centers have had challenges meeting the American College of Surgeons criteria for screening and intervening for alcohol with adolescent trauma patients. The study objective was to conduct an implementation trial to evaluate the effectiveness of the Science to Service Laboratory (SSL) implementation strategy in improving alcohol and other drugs (AOD) screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) delivery at pediatric trauma centers. METHODS Using a stepped wedge cross-over cluster randomized design, 10 US pediatric trauma centers received the SSL implementation strategy to deliver SBIRT with admitted adolescent (12-17 years old) trauma patients. The strategy adapted three core SSL elements: didactic training, performance feedback, and facilitation. The main outcome measured was SBIRT reach. Data were collected from each center's electronic health record (EHR) during pre- and post-implementation wedges (2018-2022). RESULTS EHR data from 8461 adolescent patients were extracted. Aggregated across all sites, the reach of screening with a validated AOD screening tool increased significantly from 25.2% (95% CI: 23.9, 26.5%) of adolescents during pre-implementation to 47.7% (95% CI: 46.3%, 49.2%) post-implementation. There was variability of change across centers. Brief interventions continued to be delivered at high levels to identified adolescents. Referral to primary care providers for further AOD discussion or referral to specialty service for adolescents with high risk use did not improve post-implementation and remained low. CONCLUSIONS The SSL implementation strategy can be successfully utilized by pediatric trauma centers to improve AOD screening, but challenges exist in connecting adolescents for continuation of AOD discussions after discharge.

Abstract
Effective training of mental health professionals is crucial for bridging the gap between research and practice when delivering cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and motivational interviewing (MI) within community settings. However, previous research has provided inconclusive evidence regarding the impact of training efforts. The current study aimed to systematically search, review and synthesize the literature on CBT and MI training to assess its effect on practitioner behavioural outcomes. Following prospective registration, a literature search was conducted for studies where mental health practitioners were exposed to training in face-to-face CBT or MI, reporting on at least one quantitative practitioner behavioural outcome. A total of 116 studies were eligible for the systematic review, and 20 studies were included in four meta-analyses. The systematic review highlights the need to establish psychometrically valid outcome measures for practitioner behaviour. Results of the meta-analyses suggest that training has a greater effect on practitioner behaviour change compared to receiving no training or reading a treatment manual. Training combined with consultation/supervision was found to be more effective than training alone, and no differences were found between face-to-face and online training. Results should be interpreted with caution due to methodological limitations in the primary studies, large heterogeneity, and small samples in the meta-analyses. Future directions are discussed.

Abstract
Achieving viral suppression in people living with HIV improves their quality of life and can help end the HIV/AIDS epidemic. However, few interventions have successfully promoted HIV viral suppression. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of financial incentives for viral suppression in people living with HIV. People living with a detectable HIV viral load (≥ 200 copies/mL) were randomly assigned to Usual Care (n = 50) or Incentive (n = 52) groups. Incentive participants earned up to $10 per day for providing blood samples with an undetectable or reduced viral load. During the 2-year intervention period, the percentage of blood samples with a suppressed viral load was significantly higher among Incentive participants (70%) than Usual Care participants (43%) (OR = 7.1, 95% CI 2.7 to 18.8, p < .001). This effect did not maintain after incentives were discontinued. These findings suggest that frequent delivery of large-magnitude financial incentives for viral suppression can produce large and long-lasting improvements in viral load in people living with HIV.

Abstract
Objective Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) for adolescent alcohol and drug (AOD) use is recommended to occur with adolescents admitted to pediatric trauma centers. Most metrics on SBIRT service delivery only reference medical record documentation. In this analysis we examined changes in adolescents' perception of SBIRT services and concordance of adolescent-report and medical record data, among a sample of adolescents admitted before and after institutional SBIRT implementation. Methods We implemented SBIRT for adolescent AOD use using the Science to Service Laboratory implementation strategy and enrolled adolescents at 9 pediatric trauma centers. The recommended clinical workflow was for nursing to screen, social work to provide adolescents screening positive with brief intervention and referral to their PCP for continued AOD discussions with those. Adolescents screening as high-risk also referred to specialty services. Adolescents were enrolled and contacted 30 days after discharge and asked about their perception of any SBIRT services received. Data were also extracted from enrolled patient's medical record. Results There were 430 adolescents enrolled, with 424 that were matched to their EHR data and 329 completed the 30-day survey. In this sample, EHR documented screening increased from pre-implementation to post-implementation (16.3%-65.7%) and brief interventions increased (27.1%-40.7%). Adolescents self-reported higher rates of being asked about alcohol or drug use than in EHR data both pre- and post-implementation (80.7%-81%). Both EHR data and adolescent self-reported data demonstrated low referral back to PCP for continued AOD discussions. Conclusions Implementation of SBIRT at pediatric trauma centers was not associated with change in adolescent perceptions of SBIRT, despite improved documentation of delivery of AOD screening and interventions. Adolescents perceived being asked about AOD use more often than was documented. Referral to PCP or specialty care for continued AOD discussion remains an area of needed attention.

Abstract
Despite being one of the most effective adjunctive behavioral interventions in combination with medication for opioid use disorder, contingency management (CM) is one of the least available interventions in opioid treatment programs. This paradoxical state of affairs is perhaps the greatest example of the research-to-practice gap in the behavioral health field. Implementation science, a discipline that aims to identify replicable methods that can be used across settings and populations to bridge the gap between research and practice, can potentially help. Based on our team's experience implementing CM in opioid treatment programs, we detail five key lessons for researchers, clinicians, policy makers, and others seeking to implement and sustain CM in real-world settings. First, multiple barriers to CM implementation exist at both the counselor- and organization-levels, requiring multi-level solutions. Second, one-shot CM training alone is not sufficient for successful implementation: ongoing support is essential to achieve levels of intervention fidelity that will benefit patients. Third, assessing an organization's capacity for implementation prior to support provision can prevent costly mistakes. Fourth, implementors should plan for high staff turnover rates and expect the unexpected by developing detailed contingency plans. Finally, implementors should remember that the goal is to implement evidence-based CM and not simply incentives. We encourage colleagues to consider these lessons to increase the likelihood that CM can be implemented and sustained in a manner that improves the quality of care in opioid treatment programs.

Implementing contingency management for stimulant use in opioid treatment programs: protocol of a type III hybrid effectiveness-stepped-wedge trial. Implement Sci 2023; 18:41.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Contingency management (CM) is an evidence-based intervention for stimulant use and is highly effective in combination with medication for opioid use disorder. Yet, uptake of CM in opioid treatment programs that provide medication for opioid use disorder remains low. This paradox in which CM is one of the most effective interventions, yet one of the least available, represents one of the greatest research-to-practice gaps in the addiction health services field. Multi-level implementation strategies are needed to address barriers to CM implementation at both the provider- and organization-level. This type III hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial was funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse to evaluate whether a multi-level implementation strategy, the Science of Service Laboratory (SSL), can effectively promote CM implementation in opioid treatment programs. Specific aims will test the effectiveness of the SSL on implementation outcomes (primary aim) and patient outcomes (secondary aim), as well as test putative mediators of implementation outcomes (exploratory aim). METHODS Utilizing a fully powered type III hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial with a stepped wedge design, we propose to randomize a cohort of 10 opioid treatment programs to receive the SSL across four steps. Each step, an additional 2-3 opioid treatment programs will receive the SSL implementation strategy, which has three core components: didactic training, performance feedback, and external facilitation. At six intervals, each of the 10 opioid treatment programs will provide de-identified electronic medical record data from all available patient charts on CM delivery and patient outcomes. Staff from each opioid treatment program will provide feedback on contextual determinants influencing implementation at three timepoints. DISCUSSION Between planning of this protocol and receipt of funding, the landscape for CM in the USA changed dramatically, with multiple Departments of Health launching state-wide CM initiatives. We therefore accelerated the protocol timeline and offered some cursory training resources to all sites as a preparation activity. We also began partnering with multiple Departments of Health to evaluate their rollout of CM using the measures outlined in this protocol. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study protocol is registered via ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05702021. Date of registration: January 27, 2023.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although considered one of the most effective interventions for substance use disorders (SUD), the widespread implementation of contingency management (CM) has remained limited. In more recent years there has been surge in the implementation of CM to address increasing rates of substance use. Prior studies at the provider-level have explored beliefs about CM among SUD treatment providers and have tailored implementation strategies based on identified barriers and training needs, to promote implementation of CM. However, there have been no implementation strategies that have actively sought to identify or address potential differences in the beliefs about CM that could be influenced by the cultural background (e.g., ethnicity) of treatment providers. To address this knowledge gap, we examined beliefs about CM among a sample of inpatient and outpatient SUD treatment providers. METHODS A cross-sectional survey of SUD treatment providers was completed by 143 respondents. The survey asked respondents about their attitudes toward CM using the Contingency Management Beliefs Questionnaire (CMBQ). Linear mixed models examined the effect of ethnicity (non-Hispanic White and Hispanic) on CMBQ subscale (general barriers, training-related barriers, CM positive-statements) scores. RESULTS Fifty-nine percent of respondents to the CMBQ self-identified as non-Hispanic White and 41% as Hispanic. Findings revealed that treatment providers who identified as Hispanic had significantly higher scores on the general barriers (p < .001) and training-related barriers (p = .020) subscales compared to the non-Hispanic White treatment providers. Post-hoc analyses identified differences in the endorsement of specific individual scale items on the general barriers (e.g., CM interventions create extra work for me) and training-related (e.g., I want more training before implementing CM) subscales. CONCLUSIONS Dissemination and implementation strategies for CM need to consider equity-related factors at the provider-level that may be associated with the adoption and uptake of CM.

Abstract
Few community-based substance use treatment programs are available or skilled in treating justice-involved youth, highlighting the need to equip juvenile probation officers with the skills to deliver evidence-based substance use treatment. Contingency management (CM) is evidence-based for treating substance use and shows promise for juvenile probation officers' successful uptake (positive opinions and trainability). However, research has not examined whether probation officers' positive beliefs and trainability generalize to target behaviors beyond those displayed by youth, but that nevertheless affect youth outcomes. This study examined probation officers' perceptions of using CM to engage caregivers and assessed probation officers' CM knowledge and CM delivery after training in a protocol-specific CM program for caregivers of substance-using youth on probation. Results showed probation officers were ambivalent about CM for caregivers. Results also showed that age, training format and how competency is assessed may be essential to consider. Implications for the dissemination of CM and future research are discussed.

Abstract
Background Although considered one of the most effective interventions for substance use disorders (SUD), the widespread uptake of contingency management (CM) has remained limited. Prior studies at the provider-level have explored beliefs about CM among SUD treatment providers and have tailored implementation strategies based on identified barriers and training needs. However, there have been no implementation strategies that have actively sought to identify or address potential differences in the beliefs about CM that could be influenced by the cultural background (e.g., ethnicity) of treatment providers. To address this knowledge gap, we examined beliefs about CM among a sample of inpatient and outpatient SUD treatment providers. Methods A cross-sectional survey of SUD treatment providers was completed by 143 respondents. The survey asked respondents about their attitudes toward CM using the Contingency Management Beliefs Questionnaire (CMBQ). Linear mixed models were used to examine the effect of ethnicity on CMBQ subscale (general barriers, training-related barriers, CM positive-statements) scores. Results Fifty-nine percent of respondents self-identified as non-Hispanic White and 41% as Hispanic. Findings revealed that SUD providers who identified as Hispanic had significantly higher scores on the general barriers (p < .001) and training-related barriers (p = .020) subscales compared to the non-Hispanic White SUD providers. Post-hoc analyses identified differences in the endorsement of specific individual scale items on the general barriers and training-related subscales. Conclusions Dissemination and implementation strategies for CM among treatment providers need to consider equity-related factors at the provider-level that may be associated with the adoption and uptake CM.

Green B, Parent S, Ware J, Hasson AL, McDonell M, Nauts T, Collins M, Kim F, Rawson R. Expanding access to treatment for stimulant use disorder in a frontier state: A qualitative study of contingency management and TRUST program implementation in Montana. JOURNAL OF SUBSTANCE USE AND ADDICTION TREATMENT 2023:209032. [PMID: 37061191 DOI: 10.1016/j.josat.2023.209032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/23/2023] [Indexed: 04/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The client population eligible for treatment services supported by State Opioid Response (SOR) grant funding, administered by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), was expanded to include individuals with a stimulant use disorder (stimUD) in 2020. Due to a significant need to improve services for individuals with stimUD in Montana, the Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities Division (BHDD) of the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services used the grant opportunity to work with experts in the field of stimUD to pilot contingency management (CM) and the Treatment for Individuals who Use Stimulants (TRUST) treatment model. The CM protocol included twice weekly visits for twelve weeks, using an escalating schedule of gift card incentives contingent upon stimulant-negative urine samples. TRUST is a multi-component treatment program, incorporating exercise, group therapy, and individual therapy with content guided by cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and clinical research associate (CRA) materials. In addition to SOR dollars, BHDD used additional funding for CM reinforcers provided by state tax dollars to meet research-supported target incentive totals. METHODS In this pilot project, TRUST/CM was implemented by four state-approved treatment providers and three Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), all of which had little prior experience with CM as a component of their treatment programs for stimUD. This article examines the processes of training staff, the experiences among staff with initial implementation of the treatment model, and the client characteristics of initial pilot treatment cohorts. Data for this study include primary qualitative data collected from providers, as well as client characteristics collected on the SAMHSA Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) data collection form. RESULTS Seven sites were trained in TRUST/CM, and these sites enrolled a total of 70 patients in the program. Qualitative data collected through interviews with site staff revealed the following themes: the value of intensive technical assistance being integrated in the program, concerns about staff retention and loss of expertise, adjustments of target client populations, and the importance of creative strategies for the provision of evidence-informed incentive totals. CONCLUSIONS TRUST/CM was implemented throughout Montana, including rural and urban communities. Qualitative and quantitative data support that providers viewed the CM component as beneficial for treatment retention and improved outcomes for people with stimUD. These implementation study results provide insight into challenges and solutions for providers who are considering the implementation of CM within either a state-approved substance use treatment clinic or FQHC.

Abstract
The United States is currently in the fourth wave of the overdose crisis wherein stimulants together with fentanyl are the major drivers of overdose deaths. To date, there has been limited effort outside the US Veterans Administration Health System health system to disseminate evidence-based treatment for people with stimulant use disorder. Contingency management, a behavioral intervention in which positive reinforcement is provided for a target behavior indicating treatment progress, has decades of empirical support but limited implementation in real-world, non-US Veterans Administration Health System settings. The purpose of the report is to provide an overview of contingency management, the barriers to adoption, and recommendations for overcoming these barriers.

Abstract
Background Telehealth technologies are now featured more prominently in addiction treatment services than prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, but system barriers should be carefully considered for the successful implementation of innovative remote solutions for medication management and recovery coaching support for people with opioid use disorder (OUD). Method The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention funded a telehealth trial prior to the COVID-19 pandemic with a multi-institution team who attempted to implement an innovative protocol during the height of the pandemic in 2020 in Tampa, Florida. The study evaluated the effectiveness of a mobile device application, called MySafeRx, which integrated remote motivational recovery coaching with daily supervised dosing from secure pill dispensers via videoconference, on medication adherence during buprenorphine treatment. This paper provides a participant case example followed by a reflective evaluation of how the pandemic amplified both an existing research-to-practice gap and clinical system barriers during the implementation of telehealth clinical research intervention for patients with OUD. Findings Implementation challenges arose from academic institutional requirements, boundaries and role identity, clinical staff burnout and lack of buy-in, rigid clinical protocols, and limited clinical resources, which hampered recruitment and intervention engagement. Conclusions As the urgency for feasible and effective telehealth solutions continues to rise in response to the growing numbers of opioid-related deaths, the scientific community may use these lessons learned to re-envision the relationship between intervention implementation and the role of clinical research toward mitigating the opioid overdose epidemic.

Abstract
Abstract
Vulnerable populations face significant challenges in getting the healthcare they need. A growing body of implementation science literature has examined factors, including facilitators and barriers, relevant to accessing healthcare in these populations. The purpose of this scoping review was to identify themes relevant for improving implementation of healthcare practices and programs for vulnerable populations. This scoping review relied on the methodological framework set forth by Arksey and O’Malley, and the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) to evaluate and structure our findings. A framework analytic approach was used to code studies. Of the five CFIR Domains, the Inner Setting and Outer Setting were the most frequently examined in the 81 studies included. Themes that were pertinent to each domain are as follows—Inner Setting: organizational culture, leadership engagement, and integration of the intervention; Outer Setting: networks, external policies, and patients’ needs and resources; Characteristics of the Individual: knowledge and beliefs about the intervention, self-efficacy, as well as stigma (i.e., other attributes); Intervention Characteristics: complexities with staffing, cost, and adaptations; and Process: staff and patient engagement, planning, and ongoing reflection and evaluation. Key themes, including barriers and facilitators, are highlighted here as relevant to implementation of practices for vulnerable populations. These findings can inform tailoring of implementation strategies and health policies for vulnerable populations, thereby supporting more equitable healthcare.

The measurement-based care to opioid treatment programs project (MBC2OTP): a study protocol using rapid assessment procedure informed clinical ethnography. Addict Sci Clin Pract 2022; 17:44. [PMID: 35986380 PMCID: PMC9389829 DOI: 10.1186/s13722-022-00327-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Psychosocial interventions are needed to enhance patient engagement and retention in medication treatment within opioid treatment programs. Measurement-based care (MBC), an evidence-based intervention structure that involves ongoing monitoring of treatment progress over time to assess the need for treatment modifications, has been recommended as a flexible and low-cost intervention for opioid treatment program use. The MBC2OTP Project is a two-phase pilot hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation trial that has three specific aims: (1) to employ Rapid Assessment Procedure Informed Clinical Ethnography (RAPICE) to collect mixed methods data to inform MBC implementation; (2) to use RAPICE data to adapt an MBC protocol; and (3) to conduct a hybrid type 1 trial to evaluate MBC’s preliminary effectiveness and implementation potential in opioid treatment programs. Methods This study will be conducted in two phases. Phase 1 will include RAPICE site visits, qualitative interviews (N = 32–48 total), and quantitative surveys (N = 64–80 total) with staff at eight programs to build community partnerships and evaluate contextual factors impacting MBC implementation. Mixed methods data will be analyzed using immersion/crystallization and thematic analysis to inform MBC adaptation and site selection. Four programs selected for Phase 2 will participate in MBC electronic medical record integration, training, and ongoing support. Chart reviews will be completed in the 6 months prior-to and following MBC integration (N = 160 charts, 80 pre and post) to evaluate effectiveness (patient opioid abstinence and treatment engagement) and implementation outcomes (counselor MBC exposure and fidelity). Discussion This study is among the first to take forward recommendations to implement and evaluate MBC in opioid treatment programs. It will also employ an innovative RAPICE approach to enhance the quality and rigor of data collection and inform the development of an MBC protocol best matched to opioid treatment programs. Overall, this work seeks to enhance treatment provision and clinical outcomes for patients with opioid use disorder. Trial registration This study will be registered with Clinicaltrials.gov within 21 days of first participant enrollment in Phase 2. Study Phase 1 (RAPICE) does not qualify as a clinical trial, therefore Phase 2 clinical trial registration has not yet been pursued because all elements of Phase 2 will be dependent on Phase 1 outcomes. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s13722-022-00327-0.

Relationship between clinician-level attributes and implementation outcomes from the Pathways to Comorbidity Care training program. BMC MEDICAL EDUCATION 2022; 22:605.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The process of determining the best strategy for increasing the uptake of evidence-based practice might be improved through an understanding of relevant clinician-level factors. The Pathways to Comorbidity Care (PCC) training program (Louie E, et al., J Dual Diagnosis 17:304-12, 2021) aimed to facilitate integrated management of comorbid drug and alcohol and mental disorders amongst drug and alcohol clinicians. We hypothesised that uptake of integrated management of comorbidity following the implementation of the PCC program would be associated with clinician-level: (i) demographics (gender, education, experience), (ii) attitudes (evidence-based practice, therapist manuals, counselling self-efficacy), and (iii) organisational readiness to change. METHODS Twenty clinicians participated in the 9-month PCC training program. Attitudes towards evidence-based practices and psychotherapist manuals, self-efficacy, and organisational readiness to change, along with demographics, were measured at baseline. At follow-up, change in Comorbidity Practice (CoP) scores related to integrated comorbidity management were obtained using a file audit checklist and categorised into high (at least 60% increase in CoP), medium or low (a decrease of - 20% or less in CoP). Clinician-level characteristics were examined across the implementation categories. RESULTS There were no significant differences found between implementation groups on sociodemographic variables (p's > 0.30), attitudes to evidence-based practices, attitudes to therapist manuals, and self-efficacy (p's > 0.52). The high implementation group demonstrated significantly higher scores on leadership practices aspect of organisational readiness to change relative to the low and medium implementation group ((F(2, 16) = 3.63, p = 0.05; Cohen's d = .31) but not on the other subscales (p's > 0.07). CONCLUSIONS Confidence that leadership will play a positive role in the implementation process may improve effectiveness of comorbidity training programs for drug and alcohol clinicians. On the other hand, contrary to our hypothesis, counselling self-efficacy, evidence-based practice attitudes, attitudes towards therapist manuals, gender, education and experience were not distinguishing factors.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Intersecting opioid overdose, COVID-19, and systemic racism epidemics have brought unprecedented challenges to the addiction treatment and recovery workforce. From 2017 to 2020, the New England Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) collected data in real-time on the training and technical assistance (TA) requested and attended by the front-line workforce. This article synthesizes practice-based evidence on the types of TA requests, topics of TA, attendance numbers, and socio-demographics of TA attendees over a 3-year period spanning an unprecedented public health syndemic.
Methods
We assessed TA events hosted by the New England ATTC using SAMHSA’s Performance Accountability and Reporting System post-event survey data from 2017 to 2020. Events were coded by common themes to identify the most frequently requested training types/topics and most frequently attended training events. We also evaluated change in training topics and attendee demographics over the three-year timeline.
Results
A total of 258 ATTC events reaching 10,143 participants were analyzed. The number of TA events and attendance numbers surged in the 2019–2020 fiscal year as TA events shifted to fully virtual during the COVID-19 pandemic. The absolute number of opioid-related events increased, but the relative proportion remained stable over time. The relative proportions of events and attendance rates focused on evidence-based practice and health equity both increased over the 3-year period, with the largest increase after the onset of the pandemic and the murder of George Floyd. As events shifted to virtual, events were attended by providers with a broader range of educational backgrounds.
Conclusions
Results of the current analysis indicate that the demand for TA increased during the pandemic, with a prioritization of TA focused on evidence-based practice and health equity. The practice-based evidence generated from the New England ATTC may help other training and TA centers to anticipate and nimbly respond to the needs of the workforce in the face of the intersecting epidemics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioid use disorder (OUD) is associated with high healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and costs. reSET-O is an FDA-cleared prescription digital therapeutic that delivers neurobehavioral therapy as an adjunct to treatment-as-usual (TAU; buprenorphine, face-to-face counseling, and contingency management). METHODS A budget impact model was developed to evaluate reSET-O as an adjunct to TAU in OUD for a 1 million-member US mixed health plan over a 5-year time horizon. Model inputs included treatment costs and medical costs of hospitalizations, partial hospitalizations, intensive care unit stays, and emergency department visits. RESULTS The base-case results and the alternative scenario analysis showed the addition of reSET-O was projected to result in consistently lower total yearly costs vs TAU and no treatment. The estimated total and per member per month (PMPM) budget impact over 5 years was -$763,026 and -$0.0116, respectively. When the upper range of cost estimates was used, the total and PMPM budget impacts over 5 years were -$2,481,563 and -$0.0378, respectively. Sensitivity analysis showed results were most sensitive to the proportion of patients untreated. CONCLUSION The introduction of reSET-O in addition to TAU for OUD has the potential to reduce healthcare resource utilization and costs from 12 weeks up to 5 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioid-related overdoses and harms have been declared a public health emergency in the United States, highlighting an urgent need to implement evidence-based treatments. Contingency management (CM) is one of the most effective behavioral interventions when delivered in combination with medication for opioid use disorder, but its implementation in opioid treatment programs is woefully limited. Project MIMIC (Maximizing Implementation of Motivational Incentives in Clinics) was funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse to identify effective strategies for helping opioid treatment programs improve CM implementation as an adjunct to medication. Specific aims will test the impact of two different strategies on implementation outcomes (primary aim) and patient outcomes (secondary aims), as well as test putative mediators of implementation effectiveness (exploratory aim). METHODS A 3-cohort, cluster-randomized, type 3 hybrid design is used with the opioid treatment programs as the unit of randomization. Thirty programs are randomized to one of two conditions. The control condition is the Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) Network implementation strategy, which consists of three core approaches: didactic training, performance feedback, and on-going consultation. The experimental condition is an enhanced ATTC strategy, with the same core ATTC elements plus two additional theory-driven elements. The two additional elements are Pay-for-Performance, which aims to increase implementing staff's extrinsic motivations, and Implementation & Sustainment Facilitation, which targets staff's intrinsic motivations. Data will be collected using a novel, CM Tracker tool to document CM session delivery, session audio recordings, provider surveys, and patient surveys. Implementation outcomes include CM Exposure (number of CM sessions delivered per patient), CM Skill (ratings of CM fidelity), and CM Sustainment (number of patients receiving CM after removal of support). Patient outcomes include self-reported opioid abstinence and opioid-related problems (both assessed at 3- and 6-months post-baseline). DISCUSSION There is urgent public health need to improve the implementation of CM as an adjunct to medication for opioid use disorder. Consistent with its hybrid type 3 design, Project MIMIC is advancing implementation science by comparing impacts of these two multifaceted strategies on both implementation and patient outcomes, and by examining the extent to which the impacts of those strategies can be explained by putative mediators. TRIAL REGISTRATION This clinical trial has been registered with clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03931174). Registered April 30, 2019. https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03931174?term=project+mimic&draw=2&rank=1.

From 2017-2020, the New England Addiction Technology Transfer Center (ATTC) collected data in real-time on the training and technical assistance (TA) requested and attended by the front-line workforce. This article synthesizes practice-based evidence on the types of TA requests, topics of TA, attendance numbers, and socio-demographics of TA attendees over a 3-year period spanning an unprecedented public health syndemic. Methods: We assessed TA events hosted by the New England ATTC using SAMHSA’s Performance Accountability and Reporting System post-event survey data from 2017-2020. Events were coded by common themes to identify the most frequently requested training types/topics and most frequently attended training events. We also evaluated change in training topics and attendee demographics over the three-year timeline. Results: A total of 258 ATTC events reaching 10,143 participants were analyzed. The number of TA events and attendance numbers surged in the 2019-2020 fiscal year as TA events shifted to fully virtual during the COVID-19 pandemic. The absolute number of opioid-related events increased, but the relative proportion remained stable over time. The relative proportions of events and attendance rates focused on evidence-based practice and health equity both increased over the 3-year period, with the largest increase after the onset of the pandemic and the murder of George Floyd. As events shifted to virtual, events were attended by providers with a broader range of educational backgrounds. Conclusions: Results of the current analysis indicate that the demand for TA increased during the pandemic, with a prioritization of TA focused on evidence-based practice and health equity. The practice-based evidence generated from the New England ATTC may help other training and TA centers to anticipate and nimbly respond to the needs of the workforce in the face of the intersecting epidemics.

Abstract
RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi o de identificar e analisar as práticas voltadas ao consumo prejudicial de drogas na Atenção Primária à Saúde. Trata-se de Revisão integrativa que buscou estudos nas fontes Medline e Lilacs utilizando os termos ‘Atenção Primária à Saúde’ e ‘Redução do Dano’. Como resultado, incluiram-se 52 estudos, analisados de acordo com os arcabouços teóricos que orientam as práticas em saúde. Tais estudos foram sintetizados em três categorias empíricas: comportamento de risco, que incluiu intervenção breve, programas para prevenir e diminuir o uso de drogas, entre outros; fatores determinantes, que incluiu visitas domiciliares, práticas grupais e organizacionais; e necessidades em saúde, que incluiu práticas educativas emancipatórias. Conclui-se que, majoritariamente, os estudos abordam o uso de drogas pela categoria risco, com proposição de práticas para adaptação social. As intervenções relativas aos determinantes promovem a saúde, propondo melhorias em ambientes de vida e trabalho. Práticas críticas às relações sociais estabelecidas pelo complexo das drogas são minoritárias e envolvem complexidade operacional.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Contingency management (CM), a behavioral intervention that provides incentives for achieving treatment goals, is an evidence-based adjunct to medication to treat opioid use disorder. Unfortunately, many front-line treatment providers do not utilize CM, likely due to contextual barriers that limit effective training and ongoing support for evidence-based practices. This study applied user-informed approaches to adapt a multi-level implementation strategy called the Science to Service Laboratory (SSL) to support CM implementation. METHODS Leaders and treatment providers working in community-based opioid treatment programs (OTPs; N = 43) completed qualitative interviews inquiring about their preferences for training and support implementation strategies (didactic training, performance feedback, and external facilitation). Our team coded interviews using a reflexive team approach to identify common a priori and emergent themes. RESULTS Leaders and providers expressed a preference for brief training that included case examples and research data, along with experiential learning strategies. They reported a desire for performance feedback from internal supervisors, patients, and clinical experts. Providers and leaders had mixed feelings about audio-recording sessions but were open to the use of rating sheets to evaluate CM performance. Finally, participants desired both on-call and regularly scheduled external facilitation to support their continued use of CM. CONCLUSIONS This study provides an exemplar of a user-informed approach to adapt the SSL implementation support strategies for CM scale-up in community OTPs. Study findings highlight the need for user-informed approaches to training, performance feedback, and facilitation to support sustained CM use in this setting.

Abstract
Background The importance of having a champion to promote implementation efforts has been discussed in the literature for more than five decades. However, the empirical literature on champions remains underdeveloped. As a result, health organizations commonly use champions in their implementation efforts without the benefit of evidence to guide decisions about how to identify, prepare, and evaluate their champions. The goal of this article is to present a model of champion impact that draws upon previous literature and is intended to inform future research on champions and serve as a guide for practitioners serving in a champion role. Methods The proposed model is informed by existing literature, both conceptual and empirical. Prior studies and reviews of the literature have faced challenges in terms of operationalizing and reporting on champion characteristics, activities, and impacts. The proposed model addresses this challenge by delineating these constructs, which allows for consolidation of factors previously discussed about champions as well as new hypothesized relationships between constructs. Results The model proposes that a combination of champion commitment and champion experience and self-efficacy influence champion performance, which influences peer engagement with the champion, which ultimately influences the champion's impact. Two additional constructs have indirect effects on champion impact. Champion beliefs about the innovation and organizational support for the champion affect champion commitment. Conclusion The proposed model is intended to support prospective studies of champions by hypothesizing relationships between constructs identified in the champion literature, specifically relationships between modifiable factors that influence a champion's potential impact. Over time, the model should be modified, as appropriate, based on new findings from champion-related research.

A systematic review of evidence-based practice implementation in drug and alcohol settings: applying the consolidated framework for implementation research framework. Implement Sci 2021; 16:22.

Abstract
Background There is a paucity of translational research programmes to improve implementation of evidence-based care in drug and alcohol settings. This systematic review aimed to provide a synthesis and evaluation of the effectiveness of implementation programmes of treatment for patients with drug and alcohol problems using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR). Methods A comprehensive systematic review was conducted using five online databases (from inception onwards). Eligible studies included clinical trials and observational studies evaluating strategies used to implement evidence-based psychosocial treatments for alcohol and substance use disorders. Extracted data were qualitatively synthesised for common themes according to the CFIR. Primary outcomes included the implementation, service system or clinical practice. Risk of bias of individual studies was appraised using appropriate tools. A protocol was registered with (PROSPERO) (CRD42019123812) and published previously (Louie et al. Systematic 9:2020). Results Of the 2965 references identified, twenty studies were included in this review. Implementation research has employed a wide range of strategies to train clinicians in a few key evidence-based approaches to treatment. Implementation strategies were informed by a range of theories, with only two studies using an implementation framework (Baer et al. J Substance Abuse Treatment 37:191-202, 2009) used Context-Tailored Training and Helseth et al. J Substance Abuse Treatment 95:26-34, 2018) used the CFIR). Thirty of the 36 subdomains of the CFIR were evaluated by included studies, but the majority were concerned with the Characteristics of Individuals domain (75%), with less than half measuring Intervention Characteristics (45%) and Inner Setting constructs (25%), and only one study measuring the Outer Setting and Process domains. The most common primary outcome was the effectiveness of implementation strategies on treatment fidelity. Although several studies found clinician characteristics influenced the implementation outcome (40%) and many obtained clinical outcomes (40%), only five studies measured service system outcomes and only four studies evaluated the implementation. Conclusions While research has begun to accumulate in domains such as Characteristics of Individuals and Intervention Characteristics (e.g. education, beliefs and attitudes and organisational openness to new techniques), this review has identified significant gaps in the remaining CFIR domains including organisational factors, external forces and factors related to the process of the implementation itself. Findings of the review highlight important areas for future research and the utility of applying comprehensive implementation frameworks.

Barriers and Facilitators to the Implementation of the Pathways to Comorbidity Care (PCC) Training Package for the Management of Comorbid Mental Disorders in Drug and Alcohol Settings. FRONTIERS IN HEALTH SERVICES 2021; 1:785391. [PMID: 36926478 PMCID: PMC10012778 DOI: 10.3389/frhs.2021.785391] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Accepted: 11/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
Background: We have previously reported that the Pathways to Comorbidity Care (PCC) training program for alcohol and other drug (AOD) clinicians improved identification of comorbidity, self-efficacy, and attitudes toward screening and monitoring of comorbidity. We aimed to identify barriers and facilitators of implementation of the PCC training program in drug and alcohol settings. Methods: The PCC training program was implemented across 6 matched sites in Australia as per (1), and 20 clinicians received training. PCC training included seminar presentations, workshops conducted by local "clinical champions," individual clinical supervision, and access to an online information portal. We examined barriers and facilitators of implementation according to the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research. Results: Barriers included inner setting (e.g., allocated time for learning) and characteristics of individuals (e.g., resistance). Facilitators included intervention characteristics (e.g., credible sources), inner setting (e.g., leadership), and outer setting domains (e.g., patient needs). Clinical champions were identified as an important component of the implementation process. Conclusions: Barriers included limited specific allocated time for learning. A credible clinical supervisor, strong leadership engagement and an active clinical champion were found to be facilitators of the PCC training program.

Abstract
Contingency management is one of the most effective behavioral interventions for substance use. However, the implementation of contingency management has not been as widespread as might be expected given its efficacy. This review summarizes literature that examines the dissemination and implementation of contingency management for substance use in community (e.g., specialized substance use treatment) and clinical (e.g., primary care) settings. A systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. Databases including Google Scholar, World of Knowledge, PsycINFO, and PubMed were searched. Search results yielded 100 articles and after the screening of titles and abstracts 44 were identified. Full-text articles were examined for eligibility and yielded 24 articles that were included in this review. Of the 24 articles included in the review, the majority (n = 11) focused on implementing contingency management in methadone clinics and opioid treatment programs. Training methods, implementation strategies, fidelity assessments, and attitudes toward the implementation of contingency management are discussed in greater detail. These findings highlight the importance of organizational input and ongoing supervision and consultation, and the need for additional research that is guided by theoretical frameworks and use rigorous study designs.
