Objective
Patient-centeredness is a cornerstone of substance use disorder (SUD) treatment. Patient-experience measures are potential tools for the routine assessment of patient-centered SUD care and may be valuable measures to inform quality monitoring improvement efforts. Little research exists on the predictive validity of patient-experience measures in SUD care.
Findings/Key points
Ratings of communication at 3-months were associated with treatment discontinuation and both ratings of communication and quality at 3-months and were independently associated with SUD symptoms and with mental well-being at 3-months.
Design/methods
The VOA includes patient-reported outcomes across multiple domains.
