First Mobile Retail Pharmacy Revolutionizes Health Care for HIV and Opioid Use Disorder

The first legal mobile retail pharmacy in Connecticut, a project conceived by a Yale School of Medicine (YSM) professor, has become a reality. The "Integrated Mobile Opioid Treatment and Infectious disease cOordinated care in your Neighborhood" project (InMOTION), aspires to bring care to people where they live who are at risk or living with infectious diseases, such as HIV, as well as those with substance use disorders, such as opioid use disorder (OUD).

The initiative, led by Sandra Springer, MD, professor of medicine (infectious diseases), aims to coordinate efforts with the Ending the HIV Epidemic plan, a federal project seeking to halt the decades-long HIV epidemic in the United States by 2030.
