Solutions

Opioid Addiction Recovery Support is used by providers of MAT programs to improve insight into a patient’s recovery progress and promotes ownership and adherence to treatment plans. OARS also provides extensive tools to support patients with recovery from Opioid Use Disorder. Using OARS patients are better connected to, and supported by their healthcare team throughout their recovery journey.

This extended connection and support fosters conditions for:

  • Improved ownership and adherence to treatment plans
  • Increased patient engagement
  • Fewer relapses
  • Decreased in-patient admissions/ re-admissions
  • Reduced program dropouts
  • Reduced ER visits
Continuing Alumni Support Application provides ongoing connection and support to patients who have completed a residential or Intensive Out Patient recovery program.

CASA enables providers to regularly deliver educational and motivational content including reinforcement of relapse prevention strategies direct to the CASA powered mobile app.

The peer-to-peer messaging component helps build and maintain a network of sober friends with other alumni of the clinic and stay connected to others who relate to similar experiences and challenges.

The Bari-Well solution supports bariatric healthcare teams and their patients by enhancing a bariatric program’s connectivity, efficiency and success.

Bari-Well empowers bariatric programs to better manage their patient populations. Bari-Well supports patients with pre and post surgery treatment plans in order to successfully achieve goals of long-term weight-loss.

Bari-Well provides useful tools to help providers manage and support their patients throughout all stages of the continuum of care.

About Q2i

Mission 

To design, develop, and supply the most advanced technologies that empower healthcare teams to improve the success rate of their Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) programs.

Vision

To drive innovation, thereby increasing MAT program availability and access so that all Americans seeking recovery from Opioid Use Disorder can obtain the treatment they need.

About

Q2i is a software as a service HealthTec company, specializing in developing applications that support recovery from OUD/SUD. Q2i was formed in 2016 as a result of the devastation occurring in our local communities caused by the opioid epidemic and to work to design technology that supports and improves recovery and help save lives.

Q2i collaborates with multidisciplinary healthcare teams, providers and payers to understand and then realize unmet technology needs. We facilitate improvements in patient care by supporting patients with their treatment plans through better connection and information exchange with their healthcare teams.

Q2i develops technology that assists health care providers in achieving the IHI quadruple aim of improving the patient experience of care (including quality and satisfaction), improving the health of populations, reducing the per capita cost of health care and improved clinician experience.

Contingency Management

Contingency Management (CM) is a reward-based intervention built on the principles of operant conditioning to promote behavior change and reinforce positive behaviors. CM delivers tangible monetary-based rewards contingent upon targeted outcomes or behaviors.

CM has demonstrated efficacy for improving abstinence and other substance use disorder (SUD) treatment outcomes in a diverse range of treatment populations and settings.

Q2i has partnered with Dr. Sheila M. Alessi, Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut. Dr. Alessi and her colleagues at UConn are experts in the field of contingency management. Their goal is to bring CM techniques from research to practice to improve outcomes for OUD/SUD patients.

Difficulties with traditional CM programs include the requirement for intensive hands-on management and oversight to maintain program fidelity. This requires highly trained staff to manage supervision and additional staff to manage the backend operation, such as purchasing of rewards and accounting.

Q2i’s solutions overcome these difficulties by digitizing and automating traditional contingency management and seamlessly integrating it into the cutting-edge Opioid Addiction Recovery Support (OARS) technology. OARS with CM addresses all long-term sustainability challenges while maintaining program fidelity.

OARS with CM, a mobile technology-enabled contingency management program, is a significant scientific and clinical advancement to improve treatment for OUD, SUD, and MAT programs.

Easy, Secure Video Telehealth

OARS has in-built secure, encrypted, HIPAA-compliant Telehealth video. The Care Team can schedule and run one-to-one or group Telehealth sessions directly from their OARS dashboard. Patients can easily and conveniently access sessions from within their OARS mobile app. This keeps all their treatment support in one place and has the added benefits of the OARS calendar of appointments, and alerts for upcoming sessions, making them easy to manage.

Reward Based Technology to improve opioid use disorder treatment initiation after an ED visit

Increasing the demand and reach of effective Medication Assistance Treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder (OUD) is critical to decreasing OUD associated morbidity, mortality, and economic consequences. The technology breakthrough to be studied in this project will give individuals with OUD access to a smartphone application designed to help support initiation and adherence with MAT treatment regimens through patient-oriented educational and monitoring features, as well as a new evidence-based reward function shown in other research to promote treatment adherence, improve abstinence, and improve other health outcomes. The intervention will aim to facilitate the entire treatment trajectory, starting with initial transition from an acute care setting to outpatient MAT initiation and continuing through successful transition to maintenance.

Technology Improving Medication-Assisted Treatment in Primary Care

With over 72,000 overdose deaths in 2017, of which 47,600 are attributable to opioid overdose, the opioid epidemic has become North America’s most widespread behavioral public health problem. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder (OUD) is highly efficacious. The Opioid Addiction Recovery Support (OARS) comprises of a healthcare team portal connected to a patient mobile application, to provide opioid related education, promote connectedness with clinicians, and track MAT treatment progress. This STTR Fast Track proposal will conduct interviews with patients that will inform optimal design of OARS and utilize a “stepped wedge” effectiveness design to assess the effectiveness of OARS in improving opioid agonist treatment outcomes in primary care settings and evaluate sustainability and return on investment.

Digital Health Technology Improving Successful Reintegration of Recently Released Justice-Involved Individuals with Substance Use Disorders

Of the 2 million individuals that are confined nationwide 10,000 are released weekly with inadequate support solutions that comprehensively address social determinants of health resulting in a high recidivism rate. The lack of support can significantly affect health outcomes, especially for recently released justice-involved individuals with substance use disorder (SUD). Digital health technology can help recently released individuals navigate and adapt to their new environment. Technology makes it possible to provide localized support – such as access to location-specific information about risk reduction, housing, accessing medical care, SUD treatment programs and availability, and support groups – that is not available through traditional mechanisms. It transforms support services from fragmented, disparate services to centralized, one-stop shopping that is available 24/7 for people in need.
