At Penn Medicine, our program has grown in response to the devastating impact of opioid use in our vulnerable community. Yet, based on electronic medical record data, fewer than 20% of patients receive MOUDs while admitted to the hospital, and there are treatment needs in our community that are not addressed by our outpatient clinics. Now is the time to expand provider readiness and equity in treating OUD by preparing our clinical staff at Penn Medicine to provide comprehensive addiction care with a strong emphasis on MOUD - buprenorphine.   This training is an adaptation of the X-waiver training and will focus on the proper administration of buprenorphine, patient counseling, harm reduction and pharmacology.

1. Discuss the benefits of MOUD
2. Apply prescribing of MOUD into clinical practice

In support of improving patient care, Penn Medicine is jointly accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), to provide continuing education for the healthcare team.
