Introduction: As telehealth models for treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) are expanding, the field does not know the reliability of urine drug screening (UDS) in this setting. The objective of this study is to determine the rate of falsification of UDS testing among patients with OUD in active treatment with buprenorphine via a telehealth provider.
Methods: This is a prospective cohort study of 899 randomly selected eligible patients, of which 392 participated in the final cohort that the study team used for analysis.
