Maine Prescribing Laws, Limits, and Compassionate Tapering

Maine Prescribing Laws, Limits, and Compassionate Tapering

This module is intended to address the opioid-specific education requirements under Maine Public Law Chapter 21 and 488. Maine’s new opioid prescribing law requires providers to limit the daily opioid dosages of chronic pain patients. But how can providers meet this legal requirement while also limiting their patients’ distress? This online learning module reviews why tapering is important, common tapering scenarios, techniques for effectively and compassionately tapering opioid dosages, and office workflows around tapering.
