This 1-hour, journal article-based CME activity reviewed a qualitative study of clinician beliefs and perceptions about the impacts of changes to the delivery of medication treatment for opioid use disorder (MOUD) during the COVID-19 pandemic, with a focus on the switch to care delivery via telemedicine. Perceived benefits and limitations of telemedicine as a care delivery modality for MOUD and beliefs about impacts on patient safety and well-being were explored. Implications for post-pandemic continuance of telemedicine in MOUD care were also discussed.

This one-hour, on-demand, journal article-based activity explores a qualitative study of patient perspectives and priorities regarding receiving care for OUD in primary care settings. Patients were interviewed about their experiences with primary care-based OUD treatment, particularly in comparison to their experiences with specialty clinics for MOUD care experiences. Based on these findings, ways that the primary care environment may be optimized to improve the overall health of patients with OUD were discussed.

This 1-hr journal article-based CME activity reviewed a large-scale study employing a natural language algorithm to identify stigmatizing language in the clinical notes of patients with substance use disorder. The study found the majority of patient had such language in their notes, and also identified patient and provider characteristics linked to the frequency that instances of stigmatizing language. It highlighted the importance of clinician education to avoid stigmatizing language in clinical documentation, in order to reduce stigma and refrain from exacerbating healthcare disparities already experienced by stigmatized populations.

This one-hour, on-demand, journal article-based activity examines the barriers that acute and chronic pain physicians and advanced practice providers face in offering opioid use disorder (OUD) care, particularly as it pertains to prescribing buprenorphine therapy for opioid use disorder (OUD) treatment.

This one-hour, on-demand, CME activity reviews a journal article that examines barriers to care and current protocols for care coordination for​ nursing home residents with substance use disorders.

This one-hour, on-demand, journal article examines the reasons that people who use drugs (PWUD) may not seek help, even where treatment is available. It explores the experiences of PWUD in considering or accessing treatment, and suggests consideration of low-threshold treatment models, to which some PWUD may be more receptive.
