Exciting new project by @pcori.bsky.social --follow as we create a growing community of people interested in helping those with substance use disorder experience better care transitions!

Did you know that 1 in 4 people with opioid use disorder experienced a medical hospitalization within the past year? These are often missed chances to connect people to care. CONNECT is committed to a person-centered and effective way to improve linkage to treatment after a hospital or ER visit.

Big changes are coming to Medicaid and could reshape access hsph.harvard.edu/news/how-med... 💡How might these changes impact people in care transitions or communities we all work with? 📣We’d love to hear your thoughts! #CONNECTProject #CommunityVoices

Super excited to share key findings from our study in JAMA NO! Freq abx users (≥3 in 12mo) more likely to report: -wanting abx for an URI 💊 -Needing help w/health-related materials 📖 -Medical maximizing (prefer to act vs watch/wait) 🚀 -Disbelief in science 🚫🔬 💻: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Interesting implications for tailoring messaging and education to patients with frequent abx exposure. Thanks to my amazing collaborators Rachael Lee, @angiefagerlin.bsky.social, @valerievaughnmd.bsky.social, and Julie Szymczak! #AMS #AMR @uofuphs.bsky.social @uuhsresearch.bsky.social @jama.com
