The HEALing Measurement Center: a stepped wedge cluster randomized study protocol to enhance opioid use disorder recovery through measurement based care.
Article in Implementation science : IS, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06965010 (Hybrid Clinical Effectiveness Trial Type II of Measurement Based Care in Opioid Treatment Programs), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract
backgroundOpioid use disorder (OUD) remains a critical public health crisis across the United States. To address this challenge, the HEALing Measurement Center, funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) Initiative, aims to enhance the quality, equity, and sustainment of care delivered in Pennsylvania opioid treatment programs (OTPs) through the implementation of measurement-based care (MBC). This initiative leverages interdisciplinary collaboration among academic researchers, state and community partners, payers, and OTP providers to address critical gaps in OUD treatment and implementation science.
methodsThree research projects were designed to address immediate implementation support needs expressed by community partners while simultaneously meeting critical research gaps. Research Project 1 develops an MBC implementation blueprint co-designed with key constituents to address barriers such as paperwork burden and facilitate technical assistance and learning networks. Research Project 2 evaluates the effectiveness and implementation of an enhanced MBC implementation strategy (MBC +) compared to measurement implementation as usual (MAU) through a hybrid type 2 stepped-wedge effectiveness-implementation trial. Research Project 3 focuses on the clinical impact of MBC + on patients with OUD and co-occurring mental health conditions, exploring mechanisms underlying treatment success. DISCUSSION: This protocol provides an overview of the research design as well as the unique community partnerships leveraged to enhance MBC implementation. Overall, the projects within the HEALing Measurement Center aim to establish a foundation for future MBC scale-up and sustainment across Pennsylvania, provide learnings that can inform other implementation efforts, and enhance the quality of interventions for individuals with OUD.
