The investigators will conduct a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) comparing the Remote Motivational Enhancement (RME) coaching sessions + MindWell screenings arm to an Information-only + MindWell screenings arm on early engagement in treatment support services, as measured by overall action plan initiation.
In an effort to assess and address patients' mental health needs, Cambridge Health Alliance has developed an innovative screening program (MindWell) using electronic computerized adaptive testing that will be used among telemedicine patients with opioid use disorder prescribed buprenorphine by Bicycle Health to evaluate needs related to mental health (CAT-MH) and social determinants of health (CAT-SDOH), as well as for stress (Perceived Stress Scale-PSS) and addiction (Brief Addiction Monitor- BAM). This automated screening with adaptive testing helps to identify those who need social services support (e.g. housing, legal, immigration, financial, food, transportation, etc.) or need further comprehensive mental health evaluation and treatment.
Remote Motivational Enhancement (RME) sessions provide telehealth coaching sessions based on motivational interviewing (MI), which is a collaborative, goal-oriented style of communication designed to resolve ambivalence and strengthen intrinsic motivation for a person's commitment to behavior change by eliciting their own reasons for change in an environment of acceptance and compassion. It is an evidence-based and standardized approach that has demonstrated consistently positive clinical outcomes for engagement in wellness, healthcare, and addiction treatment, including effectively improving medical regimen adherence.
This study will randomize Bicycle Health patients prescribed Buprenorphine/Naloxone (B/N) who have been screened the MindWell system to receive either standard care reviewing their screening results with their prescriber or they will receive the opportunity to additionally receive up to 3 RME sessions within a 14 day period. This study investigates the effects of the RME intervention on early engagement in psychosocial aspects of B/N telehealth treatment, rates of opioid overdose, and B/N treatment retention. This study will assess the impact of RME sessions on participants' capacity to achieve behavior change goals related to their individual SDOH needs, mental health symptoms, and/or wellness in OUD recovery goals.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| RME Intervention Arm | Experimental | Participants will discuss the results of their CAT-MH, BAM, and PSS with a coach trained in motivational interviewing with 14 days of study randomization. Based on these results, the coach will help to identify behavior change goals, resolve ambivalence, amplify activation, explore their options, and empower the participant toward taking action to obtain appropriate support services tailored to their individual issues and concerns. The number of RME sessions will range from 1-3, determined by the participant's level of activation and desire to engage in additional sessions, as well as the number of challenges identified in their initial session or determined by their CAT-MH results. Participants will be sent a link at the end of week 1 with the aim to complete an action plan questionnaire, in which they will be asked to describe up to 3 action plan goals (in mental health, social services, and stress reduction/mental wellness categories). |
|
| Information Only Arm | Active Comparator | Participants randomized to the information-only arm will have their CAT-MH, BAM, and PSS screening report results sent to their primary B/N prescriber and will encouraged to set up an appointment with their prescriber within 14 days to discuss the results. Participants will be sent a link at the end of week 1 with the aim to complete an action plan questionnaire, in which they will be asked to describe up to 3 action plan goals (in mental health, social services, and stress reduction/mental wellness categories). |
