PCSS Webinar Calendar

PCSS Clinical Roundtable & MAT Waiver Trainings Calendar

Upcoming Events:

PCSS-X is a free, six-session course that was created to give practitioners guidance on implementing medications for the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) into your practice. The first live Zoom session is Thursday April 8 at 3:00 pm ET.

PCSS-X is intended for an interprofessional audience, and participants are welcome to attend whichever sessions are most relevant to their current situation. Please go here for a summary of each session. Prescribers with frontline experience prescribing medications for OUD and developing clinic workflows will be available during each session to answer participants’ questions and discuss real-world cases.

SESSION 3 – Prepare, PART 1

Thursday, May 6 AT 3:00 PM ET

Facilitator: Sherry Larkins, PhD, Director of International Programs and Research Sociologist, Integrated Substance Abuse Programs at the University of California, Los Angeles – Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior

Cost: No fee

Target Audience: Physicians, nurse practitioners or other advanced practice nurses, PAs, psychologists, social workers, clinical administrators and healthcare teams.

Credit Designations Available: AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™, Nursing Contact Hours, AAPA Category 1 CME credit, SW CE credit, and Interprofessional Continuing Education (IPCE) credit.

Webinar Description: The strengths and barriers for each community and clinic vary, and there is no one-size-fits-all model for implementing Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD). Questions you have might have include: What models have been used to successfully scale up MOUD for OUD patients? What models have specifically been used to scale up buprenorphine treatment? How do we know which model might work best in a particular setting? This session will review these questions and highlight concrete organizational and administrative steps and processes to consider when defining your own clinic’s needs in treatment delivery. We will discuss the value of screening and how it fits into current patient flow. We will discuss the importance of developing a MOUD implementation plan that includes clinical considerations, process improvement considerations, staffing, and financial considerations.

Educational Objectives:

Evaluate two common models of MOUD service delivery – “Nurse Care Manager” and “Hub and Spoke” – and consider appropriateness of fit
Identify potential OUD patients using evidence-based screening tools and consider how screening can be integrated into current patient flow
Develop an MOUD implementation plan that includes clinical, documentation/metrics, and financial considerations
