Examining Feasibility and Acceptability of Telemedicine for Substance Use Disorder (SUD)
Sponsor: University of Michigan
Summary
The objective of this pilot intervention study is to iteratively refine motivational interviewing and psychosocial intervention programs delivered via telehealth (Teletx) to help improve substance use and other related outcomes in SUD patients who are not receiving SUD care. We will examine feasibility and acceptability of these pilot psychosocial programs in a total of n=50 participants. The goal is to refine the programs to improve acceptability and feasibility and collect preliminary data for a future fully powered randomized controlled trial (RCT) in the future. In addition to study sessions, participants that are enrolled in the study will complete surveys prior to, during, and after treatment.

Interventions
MI-CBT Teletx
Participants will first receive a 20-45 min phone or video session focused on raising participants' motivation to engage in treatment activities and psychoeducation material about substance use (i.e. "engagement session") including possible discussion about risks of substance use, value of alternative healthier activities, and the community and crisis resources pamphlet. The evidence-based manualized psychosocial programs that will be delivered via telehealth are adaptations of cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and other psychosocial interventions to enhance initial and ongoing treatment engagement. TeleTx consists of up to 8 \~30-50 minute psychosocial sessions delivered via phone or videoconference platform (e.g. Zoom etc)
