Eastern Regional Meeting (Regions 1, 2 & 3): Bridging the Gap-Telemedicine as a Path to Primary Care Pharmacotherapy for OUD
Posted 8/4/2021 (updated 4/2/2024)
Bridging the Gap: Telemedicine as a Path to Primary Care Pharmacotherapy for OUD Access to maintenance medications for OUD (MOUD) is often limited in rural primary care practices. Primary care providers in rural communities also struggle with meeting the demands of a very large practice, often without the support that is expected in urban practices. Presenters will discuss telemedicine MOUD as a bridging strategy.
