简要总结
This study will assess the impact of an opioid safety clinic intervention for patients prescribed chronic opioid therapy. Outcomes are visits to the clinic, naloxone dispensings, Prescription Drug Monitoring reviews, and Urine Drug Screens conducted
详细描述
Given ongoing concerns about the risk of opioid overdose among people taking chronic opioid therapy for pain, Kaiser Permanente Colorado (KPCO) sought to develop a standardized approach to promote opioid safety. Operational stakeholders adapted an existing Opioid Safety Clinic model, tailored it for KPCO's context, and implemented it in three geographically dispersed KPCO clinics with leadership support. The approach was a multidisciplinary "Medication Health Center" to assess patients, educate them about overdose risk, provide naloxone, and ensure adherence to standard monitoring. Operations and the research team then collaborated to assess the effectiveness of the program to inform decisions to scale the program to other regions.

研究组 & 干预措施
MHC Delayed Outreach Intervention
Clinics in the usual care/delayed intervention arm will deliver usual care through the health plan, pharmacy and clinicians. As part of usual care, patients at these clinics can access naloxone through physician prescription or standing orders.
MHC Early Outreach Intervention
Early implementation of a MHC outreach intervention program. Clinics in the early outreach intervention arm will be assigned to the MHC Direct patient outreach, where MHC staff will encourage patients to schedule an appointment with the MHC and primary care (PC) staff will be educated to encourage MHC visits.
干预措施: MHC Outreach Intervention (Behavioral)
