Implications of epidemic-pandemic convergence for routine care adoption of contingency management: A case study.

Abstract

This case study demonstrates the use of technology-based treatment approaches to help an individual enroll in medication-assisted treatment following an opioid overdose. The methods discussed in this case study may lead to improvements in our use of technology to help people take their prescribed medications for their opioid use disorder and decrease their substance use. Most importantly, adding technology to current substance use treatments can help get individuals access to potentially life-saving care even when access to in-person care is limited or disrupted.
