Implications of Epidemic-Pandemic Convergences for Routine Care Adoption of Contingency Management: A Case Study

To bridge the gap between opioid overdoses and treatment entry a smartphone-smart debit card contingency management program was developed to promote entry into medication-assisted treatment by out-of-treatment opioid users who have recently received care in a hospital emergency department. The case study described in this manuscript highlights the successful entry into medication assisted treatment despite numerous disruptions related to COVID-19 that would have made engagement difficult without the remote access to CM provided by this technology. The attached data includes the participant's earnings across the duration of the study including the cumulative earnings, and a breakdown of earnings across interviews, enrollment bonuses, downloading the CM platform, and working with their peer recovery coach. Notes include study events that occurred during their participation.
