Feasibility and Acceptability of a Novel Implementation Intervention to Promote Alcohol Use Disorder Treatment in Hepatology Clinics
Yale University
Summary
The goal of this project is to improve provision of integrated medications for alcohol use disorder (MAUD) with brief counseling for patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) in hepatology clinics. There are many benefits of AUD treatment among patients with AUD and ALD such as reduction in liver-related complications and hepatology clinicians providing this care in an integrated fashion can improve access and uptake.
