Association Between Clinician-Level Factors and Patient Outcomes in Virtual and In-Person Outpatient Treatment for Substance Use Disorders: Multilevel Analysis

Association Between Clinician-Level Factors and Patient Outcomes in Virtual and In-Person Outpatient Treatment for Substance Use Disorders: Multilevel Analysis

The role of the clinician has been studied as a potential mediator of treatment delivery and patient outcomes in both mental health and substance use disorder (SUD) treatment settings [1-3]. Prior to the forced implementation of virtual services as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the influence of clinician-level characteristics on treatment outcomes has been largely evaluated in the context of in-person care, leaving a critical gap to inform the quickly changing treatment landscape of virtual delivery.

In-Person Versus Telehealth Setting for the Delivery of Substance Use Disorder Treatment: Ecologically Valid Comparison Study

In-Person Versus Telehealth Setting for the Delivery of Substance Use Disorder Treatment: Ecologically Valid Comparison Study

In 2019, HBFF began piloting a single VIOP group to better understand the core functionality and acceptability of using a new web-based platform, with an incremental expansion of VIOP planned to begin in 2020. However, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic greatly accelerated the internet-based rollout, necessitating immediate changes to in-person programming in March 2020. As a result, the HBFF quickly pivoted most IOP services to a web-based format while continuing to collect routine patient outcome data.

Telehealth Services for Substance Use Disorders During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Longitudinal Assessment of Intensive Outpatient Programming and Data Collection Practices

Telehealth Services for Substance Use Disorders During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Longitudinal Assessment of Intensive Outpatient Programming and Data Collection Practices

These data can be designed as a feedback loop, intended to quickly translate findings into treatment implementation [23,24]. In a rapidly evolving global pandemic, this type of real-world feedback is invaluable to informing the refinement of virtual treatment, despite potentially lower response rates than a formal randomized controlled trial [22].

Using a Geolocation Social Networking Application to Calculate the Population Density of Sex-Seeking Gay Men for Research and Prevention Services

Using a Geolocation Social Networking Application to Calculate the Population Density of Sex-Seeking Gay Men for Research and Prevention Services

In this paper, we describe a methodology for using the geolocation features of one of these apps as a novel approach to calculating the population density of men using the app at given times and describe how to use this density measure to highlight areas with a high-density of minority and young minority MSM. To pilot the study methodology, we chose a sexual networking app and collected data from publicly available profiles at sampled locations around the city of Atlanta, Georgia.
