On September 20, 2018, the Duke-Margolis Center for Health Policy, in cooperation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, is hosting a public workshop, “Expanding Access to Effective Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder: Provider Perspectives on Reducing Barriers to Evidence-Based Care.” The live event will start at 9:00 am and take place at the National Press Club on 529 14th St NW, Washington, DC 20045.

The objective for this public workshop is to generate an active discussion with providers and health system stakeholders on:

• Understanding opioid use disorder and the treatment armamentarium,
• Effective approaches and models of care,
• Barriers to access for treatment of opioid use disorder,
• Opportunities and barriers to expand treatment for vulnerable populations, and
• Defining success and identifying outcomes that matter for OUD treatment.
