Establishing a Quality Measurement Framework for Youth Opioid Use Disorder Treatment
NIDA - National Institute on Drug Abuse
About This Grant
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT: Despite rising rates of opioid use disorder (OUD) among US adolescents and young adults (“youth”), most do not receive timely, evidence-based, high-quality care. There is a crucial need to establish valid and reliable measures that can be used by clinicians, health systems, and policymakers to ensure youth and families receive effective treatment. This K24 Midcareer Investigator Award in Patient-Oriented Research will provide critical support for the PI, Dr. Scott Hadland, to augment his mentorship of early-career clinician-investigators to lead clinical research on youth substance use. In parallel, the PI will expand his research program to the development of new quality measures for youth OUD treatment, and pursue training to further develop his own skills. Novel research supported by this K24 aims to (a) Identify candidate measures through semi-structured interviews with youth, family members, and clinicians; (b) Conduct a modified Delphi process with a national panel of stakeholders to assess the importance, feasibility, and usability of candidate measures; and (c) Evaluate the reliability and validity of candidate measures using national Medicaid insurance claims data and clinical data from a large regional healthcare system. In parallel, the PI will advance his expertise through training in stakeholder-engaged research, Delphi methods, and measurement science to support his own career development. Throughout the K24 award, the PI will expand his mentorship infrastructure and offer enriched, individualized support to junior investigators engaged in patient-oriented research, ultimately supporting the next generation of physician-scientists committed to improving care for youth and families. Together, these K24-supported efforts will lay a strong foundation to optimize how care for youth with OUD is measured, reported, and improved nationwide.
