The purpose of this study is to develop and then test an enhanced version of the parent study's collaborative care intervention for co-occurring disorders (CC-COD) to reduce the risk of suicide and overdose among individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) in combination with PTSD/depression. The parent study is CLARO, Collaboration Leading to Addiction Treatment and Recovery from Other Stresses (NCT04559893).
People with OUD co-occurring with depression or PTSD (COD) may not seek out treatment for their substance use or mental health issues, but they do visit their primary care provider. However, because providers generally lack specialized training in substance use and mental illness and are focused on the immediate reason for the visit, patients' substance use and mental disorders often go unrecognized and untreated. This missed opportunity can have lethal consequences. Individuals with COD are at higher risk of dying from suicide or overdose than individuals with mental illness or OUD alone. The parent study (NCT04559893) will provide a definitive answer as to whether collaborative care (CC) improves access, quality, and outcomes of care for individuals with COD. While a primary goal is to improve access to and retention in medication treatment for OUD (MOUD) (which is linked to decreased mortality and overdose risk), the interventions CC-COD supports do not proactively address suicide or overdose risk, an important limitation. In addition, CC-COD does not include families in the patient's care. The investigators address these limitations and tackle the public health crisis of increasing deaths from suicide and overdose with this study. Because family members can play an important role in a patient's decision to engage with treatment and in overdose and suicide prevention, the study team investigates family members' views and use this information to strengthen CC-COD. This revision will develop and then test the incremental effectiveness of three additional CC-COD components. Care coordinators will (1) educate family members about MOUD with the goal of increasing patient retention in treatment; (2) train family members and the patient to administer naloxone and on how to reduce overdose risk behaviors; and (3) implement Caring Contacts, a suicide prevention intervention that sends compassionate mailed or text messages to individuals to decrease social isolation and reduce suicide risk.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Collaborative Care Plus | Experimental | Intervention is administered to patients in this arm. Care to be delivered via collaborative care. The supplement intervention adds family involvement in care and Caring Contacts, a suicide prevention method. |
|
| Control | No Intervention | Patients in this arm will receive enhanced usual care. |
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Collaborative care Plus | Behavioral | Collaborative care consists of a team of providers that includes a care coordinator, a primary care provider (PCP) and a behavioral health consultant (BHC), who provide evidence- and measurement-based care to a panel of patients using a clinical registry. In this model, the CC team also includes a behavioral health psychotherapist (BHP) who consults on a regular basis but does not deliver direct care. In the Collaborative Care Plus condition, the care coordinator involves family in care, teaches family about naloxone use, and provides Caring Contacts, a suicide prevention method, to patients. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Opioid overdose risk behaviors | Measured as a sum of ratings on 9 risk behaviors from Opioid Overdose Risk Assessment (score 0-36). A high score indicates high risk. | Assessed over the previous 30 days at study entry and at 3 and 6 months after study entry |

Per National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) funding requirements, study data must be uploaded to the NIMH National Data Archive (NDA) every six months once data collection begins. A universal subject identification, Global Unique Identifier, (GUID) will be generated for each participant. All raw data will be uploaded every six months to the NIMH NDA per their policies. Additionally, all analysis data sets used for manuscripts must be uploaded to the NIMH NDA, identified by GUID.
