Background and Objectives Patients are at risk of dropout while waiting for buprenorphine treatment. Study goals are to compare 3-month retention in two different methods to buprenorphine initiation among persons with opioid use disorder. Methods We compared 3-month treatment retention rates of low-barrier buprenorphine initiation (i.e., rapid induction) (n =58) or a traditional method of buprenorphine initiation (n = 45) for persons with opioid use disorder seen at an urban community health center. Results Logistic regression revealed that low-barrier initiation had 11.11 greater odds of retention compared with traditional methods (p
