•
Introduction and learning objectives
The current opioid epidemic and access crisis
Buprenorphine “101” for the non-addictionist
Medically assisted therapy for drug addiction
Effective communication strategies – Group
visits and motivational interviewing
• Summary and conclusions
4. Learning Objectives
By the end of this presentation, participants will be
able to:
1. Explain how buprenorphine, a partial opioid
agonist, works and can save lives.
2. Witness and experience the power of patients’
first person perspectives to promote education
and treatment for other patients and
professionals.
3. Define motivational interviewing and explain
why it is particularly well-suited to helping
people with opioid addiction.
5. An Epidemic of Opioid Poisoning and
Overdose Deaths
• 13% of 18-25 yo abused prescription drugs
• In 2010, 3,000 died (18-25) from OD, more than
for heroin and cocaine.
– 8 deaths per day
– 250% increase from 1999
• 10,000 men and 6,600 women in 2010 died
from prescription med OD’s.
• More people die from poisonings than from
MVA’s.
6. * Age-adjusted rates per 100,000 population for OPR deaths, crude rates per 10,000 population for OPR abuse treatment admissions, and crude rates per 10,000 population for kilograms sold.
MMWR - November 4, 2011 / 60(43);1487-1492
7. Lack of Access – A Painful Reality
• Uninsurance associated with 45,000 deaths (1864 yo)in US.
Wilper, AP, et.al. Health Insurance and Mortality in US Adults,
Amer J Pub Health, 2009; 99:2289-2295
• Approximately 10% of those with SUDs receive
specialty care (2.5 of 23.1 million).
• 38% of 1.1 million who felt they needed
treatment had no insurance or funds to pay for

11. Buprenorphine – a partial agonist
High affinity for the mu opioid receptor
Competes with other opioids and blocks their
effects
Can precipitate withdrawal in highly opioid
dependent individuals
Slow dissociation from the mu receptor
Prolonged therapeutic effect for opioid
dependence treatment
“Ceiling effect” for stimulation of a given
receptor
13. Uses of Buprenorphine
Buprenorphine detox
Buprenorphine maintenance
Short acting opioids
Long acting opioids
Buprenorphine taper
(As an analgesic (transdermal))

Prescriptions written at time of visit or by PCP
after visit.
• Individual visits before and after group appt.
• Other staff: FM resident, Substance abuse
counselor (MFT).

Selected answers:
– “Saved my life”: 6
– “Allowed me to function”: 20
– “Stay sober and clean”: 22
– “Takes away craving”: 26
– Relief, no withdrawal: 15
– “Miracle drug”: 2
– Blocks other opioids: 4
21. “How long do you plan to take it?”
• Less than 1 year:
15
• More than a year with a stop date:
3
• I don’t know at this time, but I would like
to stop taking it eventually:
53
• I don’t have a desire to stop taking it
at this time:

22. Additional Innovations
• Buprenorphine induction clinics
– Integrated Services Model: Office-based

Hersh, D., et.al. J Psychoactive Drugs, 2011, 43: 136-145
• Nurse care managers (NCM) model
– Expansion to 19 FQCHC’s in MA w/ 1 NCM/center
– Average 75 pts/wk

23. Communication That Really Works –
Motivational Interviewing
“Motivational interviewing is a person-centered
counseling style for addressing the common
problem of ambivalence about change.”
Miller, WR and Rollnick, S. Motivational Interviewing, 3rd ed., 2013
