CalACEP MAT Podcast Episode 5: Implementation

We’ve covered why we should treat opioid use disorder in the ED, how to identify, then approach patients who might benefit from MAT, and lastly how to appropriately use buprenorphine. You’re ready to change your practice, but where do you start? Our experts offer their advice for how to get buy-in from leadership and your colleagues, as well as some specifics on how to start a MAT program in your ED.
