Rural states and communities continue to face significant challenges as they work to address the ongoing opioid epidemic and to implement specific strategies for prevention and treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) and other substance use disorders (SUDs).

This article identifies a set of five considerations for rural states and communities as they continue their work to identify solutions to this deadly epidemic.

The secondary purpose was to determine if costs or complications were higher in patients with prior shoulder surgery.
