Who is the study for?

This trial is for clinicians at a mental health treatment access center who conduct video or phone assessments and plan treatments for substance use disorders. They must do at least 3 assessments per day, have been employed for over a month, and completed relevant trainings.

What is being tested?

The study tests 'Care Navigation' to see if it helps patients with substance use disorders get more treatment after contacting the mental health center. Clinicians are randomly chosen to either provide this extra help or continue usual care.

What are the potential side effects?
