Aims reSET-O is a Food and Drug Administration-cleared prescription digital therapeutic (PDT) indicated to improve outpatient-treatment retention of patients with opioid use disorder (OUD). This study examined the cost-effectiveness and budget impact of reSET-O in conjunction with treatment as usual (reSET-O+ TAU) relative to TAU. Materials and methods Adult patients with≥ 1 OUD diagnosis, treated with buprenorphine from 1 January 2015 to 30 March 2018, were identified from Truven Health MarketScan Commercial and Medicare Supplemental Research Databases. Twelve-week healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) costs for patients categorized as adherent and nonadherent to buprenorphine treatment were estimated. Total 12-week costs included OUD treatment and other HCRU costs. The cost-effectiveness of reSET-O+ TAU was modeled in accordance with prior clinical trial outcomes. The 12-week budget impact of reSET-O was modeled for a 1 million-member healthcare plan. Results Higher buprenorphine adherence was associated with lower HCRU costs in claims data.
