It's jail, Doc, we don't do Buprenorphine: MOUD advocacy in Indiana's Jails
Recorded: Thursday, April 24, 2025 to Sunday, April 27, 2025
On-Demand Session
Overview
This 90-minute on-demand session from the ASAM 56th Annual Conference addresses the benefits of Medications for Opioid Use Disorder in carceral settings, key legal principles, and advocacy strategies to improve access at both the individual and systems levels.
The scientific evidence and legal grounding for medications for opioid use disorder in jails is well established. Unfortunately, despite medical, scientific and legal support for MOUD, access to it remains extremely limited in most jails in Indiana. This treatment gap provides a huge opportunity for providers, legal advocates and communality organizations to come together and advocate for individual patients to have better access but also to change the systems that continue to limit access in jail.
The target audience for this Intermediate level session includes physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, other clinicians, researchers, residents, fellows, students, and counselors.
This session addresses the following ACGME Competencies: Patient Care and Procedural Skills, Practice-based Learning and Improvement, Systems-based Practice.
This session addresses the following IPEC Competencies: Values and Ethics, Roles and Responsibilities, Interprofessional Communication, Teams and Teamwork.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion, learners will be able to:
- Summarize the benefits of providing Medications for Opioid Use Disorder to patients with opioid use disorder in carceral settings
- Identify legal principles and recent case law relevant to patients with opioid use disorder at risk for incarceration
- Identify advocacy strategies to improve access to medications for opioid use disorder both on an individual patient level as well as at a systems level.
