This quality improvement initiative compared implementation among Pennsylvania (MOUD) programs, evaluated sociodemographic characteristics patients using tele-MOUD, described trends in patient retention. Methods Five health systems with MOUD programs completed questionnaires regarding their models provided aggregated data in-person visits 2020. Three monthly appointment (scheduled, completed, no-show, visits) over period which scaled up. Results Differences protocols related to provision inductions, eligibility operationalization remote drug testing. Across 88% prescribers conducted appointments, 50% used We observed differences, a greater proportion female, White, non-Hispanic tele-MOUD. data, overall enrollment increased, new remained relatively constant. Engagement suggested temporary decline no-show appointments that aligned escalation one program. Conclusions Tele-MOUD protocol differences indicate need research inform evidence-based guidance. Findings suggest largely engaged retained as was implemented but reveal inequities use, highlighting efforts overcome technology access barriers avoid exacerbating disparities access.

As Emergency set expire May of 2023, Congress agencies can leverage extensive evidence from studies conducted during wake pandemic make evidencebased decisions regulation going forward. To aid policy makers, review synthesizes interprets peer-reviewed research effect flexibilities uptake implementation telehealth, its impact OUD patient prescriber experiences, health outcomes. Overall, our finds that took advantage audio-only option, with wide range benefits few downsides. result, regulators—including Congress—should continue non-restricted initiation.
