10 Recognizing and Understanding Addiction in our State Where did this come from? Change in attitudes about treatment of pain Change in teaching about the safety of opioids Development of new medications with abuse potential Incorporation of new expectations into medical practice Patient satisfaction surveys / Prescriber payment changes How did this arrive in TN? Pill culture Economic realities Pain medicine gone bad: The rise of the pill mill

12 US Counties Like Scott Co, IN

13 Multidisciplinary Approach Prevention CSMD Prescriber education / SBIRT Public awareness Better understanding / analytics Improved care during pregnancy Treatment Naloxone Substance abuse treatment Improved NAS treatment Both Prevention and Treatment Community coalitions Prescription for Success

14 Multidisciplinary Approach Decrease Supply Rx opioids, heroin, benzodiazepines Many stakeholders Community coalitions Public Health Mental health Healthcare Law enforcement State and local government Nonprofits Need A Team of Teams Share information Create relationships and trust Local decision making

16 Public Health Approach to the Opioid Abuse Epidemic Tennessee Department of Health Strategic Map, 2015 Reduce Opioid Misuse, Abuse & Overdose Draft 10/27/15 A B C D Improve Primary Prevention Improve Monitoring and Surveillance Improve Regulation and Enforcement Increase Utilization of Treatment (2º Prevention) E Increase Access to Appropriate Pain Management 1 Improve education for consumers, families & HCWs Optimize usability of the CSMD Provide prescriber/ dispenser education on regulation & enforcement Destigmatize & approach addiction as a treatable chronic illness Require pain management clinic physicians to have specialty certification 2 Expand use of optimal prescribing guidelines Link other data sources to the CSMD Improve collaboration with law enforcement Expand SBIRT training and use Develop a model for desirable integrated pain practices 3 Actively support community coalitions Improve the high risk patient model Expedite investigations supporting Board oversight of prescribers Expand the availability and use of Naloxone Recognize pain practices that meet the model 4 Expand efforts to reduce NAS Develop a high risk prescriber model for individuals and practices Effectively regulate Pill Mills Address legal barriers to receiving care Work with academic partners to improve training of prescribers 5 Facilitate community interventions, including safe disposal of drugs Develop a high risk dispenser model Expand treatment alternatives to incarceration Partner with Mental Health to expand treatment options for opioid misuse Understand how patient care is impacted by sudden clinic closure 6 Reduce blood borne pathogen transmission Improve proactive use of clinical monitoring tools Advocate for Prescription for Success including treatment and care Expand and Strengthen Key Partnerships and Collaborative Infrastructure Secure/Realign Resources and Infrastructure to Implement Comprehensive Approaches Use Data, Evaluation and Research to Inform Interventions and Continuous Improvement

17 Improve Primary Prevention Improve education for consumers, families, and health care workers Expand use of optimal prescribing guidelines Actively support community coalitions Expand efforts to reduce NAS Facilitate community interventions, including safe disposal of drugs Reduce harm from needle use

18 Improve Monitoring and Surveillance Optimize use of the CSMD Link other data sources to the CSMD Improve the high risk patient model Develop a high risk prescriber model for individuals and practices Develop a high risk dispenser model Improve proactive use of clinical monitoring tools

19 Improve Regulation and Enforcement Provide prescriber/dispenser education on regulation and enforcement Improve collaboration with law enforcement Expedite investigations supporting Board oversight of prescribers Eliminate Pill Mills Improve legislation to allow proactive regulation

20 Increase Utilization of Treatment Destigmatize and approach addiction as a treatable chronic illness Expand SBIRT training and use Expand appropriate use of MAT Expand treatment alternatives to incarceration Partner with Mental Health to expand treatment options for opioid misuse Advocate for Prescription for Success including treatment and care

21 What are we seeing? Reductions in doctor shopping Reductions in total MME being prescribed Increased use of the CSMD Increased awareness of pain guidelines and appropriate use of pain medication Continued high rates of overdose deaths Continued increases in NAS

22 Cumulative Number of Doctor and Pharmacy Shoppers for 1 st and 2 nd Quarter of Each Year 4,500 4,000 3,500 3,000 2,500 2,000 1,500 1,
