This one-hour, on-demand, journal article-based activity presents research on a pilot of a rapid methadone initiation protocol for hospitalized patients with opioid use disorder (OUD). This pilot intervention represents an opportunity to treat patients with medications for opioid use disorder to reduce risk of death from all causes, including overdose. The results of this pilot may inform existing clinical practice norms for hospitalized patients with OUD treatment and reduce patient mortality. The target audience for this intermediate continuing education activity includes: physicians, nurse practitioners, PAs, pharmacists and other clinicians, researchers, students, and policymakers. This activity addresses the following ACGME Core Competencies: Patient Care, Medical Knowledge, Interpersonal and Communication Skills, Practice-Based Learning and Improvement, Professionalism, and Systems-Based Practice.
