Article Synopsis
- Physician-pharmacist collaborative practice models (PPCPM) improve access to medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), but they're not widely used in healthcare settings.
- A trial was conducted at an outpatient clinic where pharmacists and psychiatrists worked together during appointments to manage patients on buprenorphine/naloxone, resulting in saved psychiatrist time and improved patient oversight.
- The PPCPM appointments led to better identification of MOUD adherence issues, more frequent service referrals, and effective medication reconciliations, while maintaining similar care level compared to psychiatrist-only visits.
