DEA MATE Act Course: Opioid Mortality: What Prescribers Can Do
Tracking # 20-1040912
Course overview
Deaths from opioid overdose have risen to epidemic levels, leading to a proliferation of many regulations and counter-measures, such as the pharmacy drug monitoring programs (PDMPs). This activity will assess the effectiveness of these measures, review existing clinical practice guidelines, and offer conservative prescribing principles and tools that can best help physicians define their own policies and reduce risk in prescribing controlled substances for their patients. This course may be applied to part of the 8-hour DEA requirements to meet the MATE Act.
