patients
Factors Contributing to the Opioid Epidemic
– Leftover pills are the problem
– Dr. David Proctor, the “Godfather of Pill Mills” – 1992-2001, America’s first “pill mill” in South Shore, KY
– Too many patients are suffering unnecessarily because of inadequate pain management – Physicians needed education to dispel the concern for addiction – Insurances were not reimbursing for non-pharmacologic modalities for the treatment of chronic pain
Cultural Changes Regarding Pain and Opioids
– Retrospective review of 11,882 hospitalized patients who received narcotics – Four patients were found to have “well documented addiction”
– Iatrogenic risk was low in 38 chronic non-cancer pain patients treated with
promoted “Pain is the Fifth Vital Sign”
Organizations) embraced the “Pain is the Fifth Vital Sign”
treatment of pain, especially with opioids
Regulatory and Cultural Pressures
– Inferred sanctions if pain was inadequately controlled
– Collection of patient data was necessary for improvement – Distinction between patient satisfaction and quality of care BLURRED
the value-based purchasing program
– Patient experience collected via HCAHPS (Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems) – “Did hospital staff do everything they could to help you with your pain?”
Pressure on Physicians to Prescribe Opioids
bonuses)
– CMS only required 300 surveys in a 12-month period – Only a small number of patients actually completed the surveys – A single poor survey could significantly impact whether the hospital achieved the required 90% percentile goal of patient satisfaction – Thus, every patient must be satisfied!
physicians were often compelled to satisfy the patients, despite their reservations about the need for opioids
Kentucky Update - 2017
among the 50 states
– Largest demographic: 35-44 y/o – Heroin: 22% of OD (DOWN from 34% in 2016) – Fentanyl: 52% of OD (UP from 47% in 2016)
Campbell, and Kenton
Breathitt, and Scott
– 782 died in traffic accidents – 263 people were murdered
Impact on Families and Children
– CDC: KY had 3rd highest rate of opioid use at delivery among the 50 states
Impact on Criminal Justice System
– 2000: 30% – 2009: 38%
2012 to 2016
– 2012: 1,525 – 2016: 1,916 (25% increase)
– 2012: 911 – 2016: 1836
$82M
Impact on the Workforce
– Strong link between RISING opioid prescriptions and DECLINING workforce participation rates (percentage of people employed or looking for work) – Half of men aged 25-54 who are not in the workforce take pain medication daily
– Workforce participation rate was 4.6% LESS on average in counties with high rates of opioid prescribing
Impact on Kentucky Workforce
– Kentucky had one of the lowest workforce participation rates in the country – Contributing factors:
Community Collaboration
– Reduce number of offenders going to jail for drug possession – Remove barriers to people in recovery from acquiring employment

is to prevent and reduce the burden of substance use disorder (SUD) through conducting and translating multidisciplinary and innovative research to inform clinical services, training, public health practice and policy.
A partnership with the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) The funding announcement required specific evidence-based prevention and treatment interventions, including: prevention efforts related to opioid overdose; screening and assessment of
use of medications to treat OUD; and ongoing recovery support
in multiple settings and are required to include healthcare, behavioral health, and justice settings.
THE HEALING COMMUNITIES STUDY
The primary aim is to develop an evidence-based integrated strategy to reduce opioid-related overdose deaths by 40% in three years in at least 15 highly affected communities by:
➢ Increasing distribution of naloxone (Narcan) ➢ Increasing the number
individuals receiving medication treatment for opioid use disorder ➢ Increasing retention of people in treatment beyond 6 months ➢ Increasing the number of people receiving recovery support services

Goals
Alleviate signs/symptoms of physical withdrawal Opioid receptor blockade Diminish and alleviate drug craving Normalize and stabilize perturbed brain neurochemistry
Options
Opioid Antagonist
Naltrexone (full antagonist)
Opioid Agonist
Methadone (full agonist) Buprenorphine (partial agonist)Naltrexone
Mu-opioid receptor antagonist
Not a controlled substance, no special prescribing restrictions
Patients physically dependent must be opioid free for a minimum of 7-10 days before treatment
Also FDA approved for the treatment of alcohol use disorders
Oral naltrexone (generic and brand
Revia)
Well tolerated Duration of action 24-48 hours FDA approved 1984IM injection extended- release naltrexone (Vivitrol)
IM injection (w/ customized needle)Naltrexone Summary
Benefits
Good for patients who do not want opioid agonist therapy No risk of diversion (not a controlled substance) No risk of overdose by drug itself Can be administered in any setting (office-based or OTP) Long-acting formulation Treats both opioid use disorder and alcohol use disorder
Limitations
Difficulty starting—must be fully withdrawn from opioid; > short- acting (6 days); long-acting opioids (7-10 days) Not recommended for pregnant
physically dependent on opioids should receive treatment using methadone or buprenorphine Not suitable for patients with severe liver disease
Loss of tolerance to opioids increases the risk of overdose if relapse occurs Kampman, K. et al. (2015). The ASAM National Practice GuidelineMethadone Hydrochloride
Full opioid agonist
Oral: 80-90% bioavailability liquid, tablet, and disket formulations
Duration of action
24-36 hours to treat OUD 6-8 hours to treat pain
Proper dosing for OUD
20-40 mg for acute withdrawal > 80 mg for craving, “opioid blockade”Can be administered parenterally (IV, SQ or IM)
at 80% of the total daily oral dose administered in a divided dose every 12
hours (e.g., 40 mg by mouth every day = 16 mg IV every 12 hours)

Highly structured Methadone dosing
Daily nursing assessment Weekly individual and/or group counseling Random supervised drug testing Psychiatric services Medical services Observed daily → “Take
homes” based on stability and time in treatment. Max: 27 take homes. Varies by state, county and individual clinics
Methadone Summary: Benefits
Increases overall survival Increases treatment retention Decreases illicit
Decreases hepatitis and HIV seroconversion Decreases criminal activity Increases employment Improves birth
Methadone Summary: Limitations
Highly regulated: Narcotic Addict Treatment Act 1974 Created methadone clinics (Opioid Treatment Programs) Separate system not involving primary care or pharmacies
Limited access Inconvenient Mixes stable and unstable patients Lack of privacy No ability to “graduate” from program
Stigma: “Methadone is substituting one drug for another…I don’t believe in methadone”
Buprenorphine
Semi-synthetic analogue of thebaine
Approved by the FDA in 2002 as Schedule III — up to 5 refillsHigh receptor affinity
Slow dissociation
Ceiling effect for respiratory depression
Partial Mu-
antagonist
Buprenorphine Efficacy: Summary
Studies (RCT) show buprenorphine (16-24 mg) more effective than placebo and equally effective to moderate doses (80 mg) of methadone on primary outcomes of:
Retention in treatment Abstinence from illicit opioid use Decreased opioid craving Decreased mortality Improved occupational stability Improved psychosocial outcomes

There Remains Limited Access to Evidence-Based, Long-Term, Life-Sustaining Treatment with Medications for Patients Seeking OUD Treatment
Guidelines for the Behavioral Treatment as Part
Psychological support should be
medications for OUD Treatment services should aim to offer onsite, integrated, comprehensive psychosocial support to every patient
While patients should be offered psychosocial support, they should not be denied medication should they refuse such support, but encouragement to utilize psychosocial support should be continued
