Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to learn if a community informed designed program of addiction counseling with coordinated community peer navigator for people with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and other medical conditions can improve engagement in primary care and retention on buprenorphine. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the addition of a counseling and peer referral interventions in addition to usual primary care with low-threshold buprenorphine increase retention on medications for opioid use disorder? * Does the addition of counseling and peer referral intervention in addition to usual primary care with low-threshold buprenorphine increase engagement in primary care? Researchers will compare the MOUD "Plus" intervention compared to primary care treatment as usual low-threshold buprenorphine prescribing practice to see if MOUD "Plus" improves retention and engagement. Participants will upon screening and enrollment: * Meet with prescribers who will determine dose of buprenorphine and assess other medical issues as per treatment as usual with visits every 2-4 weeks * Meet with the integrated addictions counselor to develop rapport and support around clinic engagement, brief counseling intervention, and coordination of care in support of their MOUD * Be referred to a community based peer who meets with participants outside the clinic for support and advocacy for patient directed recovery goals * Meet with the research coordinator at 2, 3, and 6 months to complete follow-up surveys about their care and experiences
