In an experiment that explored which implementation strategy—coaching using the NIATx goal process and ECHO, which prepares clinicians to increase the use of MOUD—affects the uptake and penetration of MOUD in jail settings. The presentation will: 1)identify techniques to correct misinformation; 2) discuss the impact of interagency change teams; 3) discuss the efficacy of different coaching and/or ECHO implementation strategies; and 4) use a web-based coaching model. The study findings illustrate that improving MOUD utilization in jail settings requires attention to cultural and work process issues.
