Buprenorphine Group Medical Visits in Primary Care

CompletedPhase 3

Sponsor: Montefiore Medical Center

Conditions: Opioid-Related Disorders

Interventions: G-BMT, Treatment as usual, Buprenorphine

Countries: United States

The primary goal of this research is to improve the effectiveness of buprenorphine maintenance treatment (BMT) within primary care. Investigators propose that providing BMT as part of a group medical visit (instead of an individual visit) will improve treatment outcomes for patients with persistent opioid abuse, because members become accountable to the group, are exposed to beneficial habits of others (i.e. positive deviance), and can receive efficacious behavioral interventions concomitantly with medical management
