【 摘 要 】

Purpose: Opioid use disorder is a prevalent and chronic condition that can lead to adverse outcomes if untreated. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with buprenorphine in a primary care setting has the potential to increase availability of treatment and reduce harm; however, retention in MAT is key for patient success. This study’s purpose was to examine predictors of retention in a MAT program for OUD in a family medicine residency clinic.
