Association between tailored prescriber training and buprenorphine treatment for opioid use disorder among emergency medicine clinicians

A tailored training session for MOUD prescribing for ED clinicians was associated with increased buprenorphine prescription fills, patients treated, and new initiations. These findings suggest that this scalable, low-resource approach to enhance prescriber skills in emergency care settings may inform state and national strategies to expand buprenorphine access as part of efforts to address the opioid crisis.
