Funded by NIDA 1R21 DA 019772-01 and RWJF STAR-SI
Initial Study Aims• Aim 1: Assess and Evaluate SSA role in the
transfer of CM intervention into “real-world” clinical practice w/in 3 Opioid Tx programs
• AIM 2: Evaluate the utility of the state developed Practice Adoption Protocol (PAP)
• AIM 3: Explore approaches to monitoring the adoption of EBPs
• H1-H6: The application of Backer’s 6 strategies to the adoption process will enhance the likelihood that the EBP will be adopted
NIDA Study on Implementation of CM within 3 Opioid Treatment Programs (2005-2007)
Definition• Contingency Management, also known as Motivational
Incentives, is a behavioral modification intervention:– Targets client behaviors, such as abstinence; attendance in
treatment– Requires frequent monitoring to verify client targeted behavior– Provides tangible reinforcers immediately whenever client
demonstrates targeted behavior– Provides escalation of client’s ability to ‘earn’ reinforcers– Withhold reinforcer or reset if targeted behavior does not
occur

Human Dynamics of Change
6 Key Strategies• Interpersonal Contact
• Planning and Conceptual Foresight
• Outside Consultation on the Change Process
• User-Oriented Transformation of Information
• Individual & Organizational Championship
• Potential User Involvement
First Round Findings• Two of the three opioid tx programs implemented CM,
but the state’s role was labor intensive, no sustainability: Tx as usual approach needed
• Backer’s strategies, particularly use of outside consultant w/in a learning collaborative, were effective
• PAP necessary, but not sufficient for state’s ongoing management-each program had a readiness phase that was not integrated into original PAP
• Absence of program Executive staff & implementation team (infrastructure) inhibited sustainability
• Organizational capacity & use of data to track progress critical
Second Round: STAR-SI OP Providers (2008-9)
Characteristics:
All had developed mastery of NIATx process improvement
Internal capacity & infrastructure to support rapid cycle change projects
Core implementation teams (ES,CL,DC,CM interventionist)
Proficient with data collection & interpretation
Ready to move from focus on access to retention
Tx as usual approach-no IRB
Reinforcement of attendance in Tx, not abstinence
Study DifferencesRetained:
Idea champions
Outside consultant-Dr. Petry
Weekly conference calls
Client tracking logs
Modified:
Demonstrated readiness/capacity
Identified CM clinician and back-up

The Road to Evidence- Based Practices
Beginning
• 2005: FACTS Director attends ASAP Conference on Niatx. National Project and statewide Conference Call introduced.
• Staff participates in call and instructions for a Walk-Thru were discussed.
• Staff members walk through treatment process. Goal: see agency from the customer perspective.
Findings:
• Appointment scheduling was confusing
• Poor communication between staff and clients resulting in double bookings
• Clients wait time between calling agency and first appointment needed reduction.
Goal: Reduce to 10% cancelled or broken intake
• Scheduling Process Changed:
• Scheduling Process now requires daily updates to avoid confusion.
• Initial sessions prioritized if double booking takes place.
Challenges which impacted continuation:
• Data collection confusing
• Time constraints
• Staff Resistance
Another Opportunity:
• 2007 Opportunity to join OASAS Star-SI Project for Long Island Programs.
• Accepted to participate.
• Staff trained in data collection and use of Star QI.
• Baseline data collected in Fall 2007
• Initial change team, team leader, and executive sponsor selected.
All Important: Support• Learning Collaborative
• Dr Z came to agency to explain Star-SI and train staff in techniques
• Fishbone and brain storming techniques were highlighted
• Telephone conference calls
Beginning of cultural change
• Staff introduced (through NIATX support) to concept of evidence-based programs
• Staff begins to understand value of knowing what works and what doesn’t
• Staff participates in initiative by monitoring change cycles
• Staff participated in ‘brainstorming’ and ‘fishbone’ activities
First Project:
• Goal : Reduce no-shows for initial session
• Project: Staff agreed to call persons scheduled for initial appointment: introduce themselves; ask about their experiences, if they have any questions, concerns re: treatment
Other Projects:• Started an Orientation Group• Client Satisfaction surveyed at 30, 60 and 90
days• Front Office Scripting• Clinical Supervisor participated in 3-day ‘Train
the Trainer’ on Motivational Interviewing• 6 1 ½ hour training sessions held for clinical
staff in Motivational Interviewing conducted by Clinical Supervisor at agency
Contingency Management
• OASAS announced Star-SI training in Contingency Management by Dr. Petry
• FACTS hosted training as well as sent staff for training
• Change Team Leader selected to go to training as well as 2 other staff members not previously part of Star-SI change team.
Selected CM Project:
• Alcohol and Chemical Dependency Education Group
• Data from current group assessed
• CM group run for the 12 week session with 3 staff members following CM protocol
Support: Bi-monthly meeting with other CM groups by OASAS and Dr Petry
• Problem solve
• Monitor progress
• Address problems in implementation
• Share ideas
• Assist with logistics/paperwork
Results
• The number of visits increased from 94 to 146 ( + 52)
• The average attendance increased by 18%
• Individual consistency increased by 14%
• Revenue increased by $3640.
• Intangibles ( staff morale, excitement of doing something new, recognition)

CM
Challenges
• Staff time/staff resistance to perceived ‘interference’ with group process
• Shopping, running group, keeping data
• Getting new staff involved (adolescent group)
• Getting buy in from administration through development of a business plan
• Sustainability
Unanticipated outcome:
ACDE Group Leader felt CM took too much time from group educational time, BUT
Evaluations of the group were much more positive for the educational component than in prior group evaluations.
New Project: CM with the Adolescent Group
• Outgrowth of Conference Call by OASAS on challenges and issues with adolescent treatment
• Experts in field concurred that CM ideally suited for this population
• Adolescent Counselor on conference call• Star-SI team support idea of implementing

ADOLESCENT CONTINGENCY MANAGEMENT DATA COMPARISON
February 3 - April 28
Control
CM
Results:
• CM improved attendance with adolescents
• More youth willing to sign up for the group
• Once involved, youth attendance more consistent
Sustainability for Contingency Management:
• Staff time given for preparation, shopping, record keeping
• Other staff encouraged to look at own groups and do contingency management as a ‘pilot’
• Build contingency management into education series and adolescent group on an ongoing basis
Leadership Challenges
• Find staff time for brainstorming, training, with goal of maintaining staff interest
• Collect relevant data and
• Present data in manner that is significant and meaningful to clinical staff to insure buy-in for EBP
• Involving all staff in different projects to institutionalize the change process
Culture Change
• Discussing process improvement with other programs increases staff knowledge of other initiatives
• Staff becomes open to changing ‘status quo’• Staff individual professional growth becomes
tied to learning more about EBP
On the Horizon
• More EBP
• Round 3 CM
• MET/CBT
• GAIN
• Motivational Interviewing
• Concurrent Documentation
• Continue staff rotation on Star Si
MI Implementation & Monitoring
• Extent and possibility discussed with Outpatient Methadone Maintenance Clinics.
• Agreed to a ten- week program:– Five two- hour training sessions followed by a week for
application discussion evaluation of progress during clinical supervision.
– Training sessions were interactive and practical rather than in lecture format.
• Continuing post- course discussion during clinical supervision.
• Course laid a foundation for staff who attended other training that applied MI in the training.
• Results About 106 training hours and 53 supervisory were devoted to the project.

STAR-SI Change Team:• Ken Corbin – Director of Adult Services• Yvonne Andrade – Clinical Supervisor• Cindy Robinson – Intake Specialist• James Jordan – Intensive Outpatient Counselor• Diane Sinram – Outpatient Counselor • Sue Scruggs – Data Coordinator • Karisa Endelmann - Outpatient Counselor /
Contingency Management Counselor
Why We Became Part of STAR-SI
• Reduce waiting time
• Reduce no shows
• Increase Admissions
• Increase retention in program
Change Team Meetings• Since December of 2007 the change team met on a
weekly basis to create new changes and review changes already implemented
• In addition the change team had a conference call with Mat Roosa STAR-SI Mentor to review changes made to program and outcomes.
• In June 2009 after becoming familiar with the process and due to an increase in our census we changed our weekly meetings to bi-monthly
Implementation of Contingency Management
• Aug 2008 - Implementation of Contingency Management to increase attendance and retention of patients
Target Population• Patients beginning treatment who are eligible for
Phase 1 Outpatient Discussion group
• Eligibility was determined upon intake
• Up to 15 participants
• 12 week study
CM Model Used
Contingency Management for group attendance using the name-in-hat-prize based procedure, developed by Dr. Nancy Petry
The Contingency Management Process
• Each time patient attends group they earn a slip with their name on it which then gets placed in a hat
• Based on the number of patients who attend group the counselor then picks half the amount of slips
• Example: 10 group attendees = 5 name picks from the hat
• Patients whose slips were picked from hat, then get to draw from a fishbowl
• Fishbowl contains 69 “small”, 20 “medium”, 10 “large”, and 1 “Jumbo
• Small ($1.00)• Medium ($5.00)• Large ($20.00)• Jumbo ($100.00)
Understand and Involve the PatientSurvey of Desired Prizes
• Small - lotion, toothbrush, socks, granola bars, combs, pens, etc.
• Medium – disposable cameras, batteries, coffee gift cards, etc.
• Large – movie theater tickets, watches, Subway gift cards, Applebee gift cards, coffeemaker
• Jumbo – microwave, pot and pan set
Contingency Management Round 1• CM Round 1 began on 8/27/08 • Closed group – unable to compare to similar group • We were able to compare overall retention in treatment with
those patients who started treatment at the same time with the CM participants
• 71% of CM participants were active, 29% were not• Compared to non-CM participants, 64% active 36% were not• Based on Round 1’s information there was an increase of 7% in
treatment retention of CM participants

Disadvantages of Contingency Management
• Time consuming
• Must have exceptional organizational skills to facilitate CM
• If CM counselor is unavailable the covering group counselor must be fully trained in Contingency Management
Advantages of Contingency Management
• Positive reinforcement for participants• Positive group cohesiveness • Participants learned timeliness skills• Support of bi-weekly phone calls • Increase in treatment retention• Increase in finances to the program
Motivational Interviewing• Another evidence based practice we have
implemented is Motivational Interviewing• Half of the staff in the adult service area have
been trained• Motivational interviewing techniques have
been applied in the Outpatient program during the intake process and during individual sessions
Motivational Interviewing• We will begin to track and monitor this process
using tape recorders to track use of OARS• Open ended questions• Affirmations• Reflective listening• Summaries
Impact of STAR-SI on Outpatient• Three major developments impacted from the changes
include:
1. An average increase of 15% of intake show rate, (2007-57%, 2008-62% and 2009-72%)
2. An increase in retention in treatment based on data collected from CM
3. An 8% increase of intakes coming from our inpatient unit
Impact of Star-SI on the Agency
• Due to successful outcomes the Outpatient Unit experienced using the NIATx model our director decided to implement use of this model throughout all our other adult service areas including:
• Inpatient Detox• Inpatient Rehab• Inpatient Psychiatric• Partial Psychiatric Day Program• Prevention Program
Plans Moving Forward• Another round of CM will take place with an
outpatient group and possibly to other areas of the program
• Orientation/Welcoming group
• Complete Staff training in Motivational Interviewing
