Summary

The goal of this research is to leverage technology in primary care clinics to improve screening, brief intervention and referral to Substance Use Disorder (SUD) treatment, and treatment attendance by comparing 1. a text message-based screening, phone-based brief intervention, and referral to treatment by a remote care coordinator (m-SBIRT; intervention arm), versus 2. evidence-based, in-person Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT; Treatment As Usual (TAU); control arm). Primary Aim is to compare the efficacy of m-SBIRT to TAU in positive screens for substance use. Secondary Aim is to compare m-SBIRT to TAU on Substance Use Treatment Attendance.
