Pilot Project: “Motivating Medication for Opioid Use Disorder”
Summary Heading link
Opioid addiction has caused an overdose epidemic, and while medication can help people quit, many stop taking it. Scientific studies show that giving rewards, like gift cards, when patients meet quitting goals helps them stick with medication for opioid addiction.
Dr. Margaret Wardle and her collaborators are designing a rewards program that works in the real world by rewarding small positive behaviors chosen by patients.
