This resource will provide current information about the legal and procedural aspects of prescribing buprenorphine. Because of the extraordinary level of legal scrutiny buprenorphine prescribers face, they must be absolutely certain that their office protocols are following standards of care guidelines and would stand up to the scrutiny of current local, state and federal laws. Critical issues that will be covered include buprenorphine-specific informed consent themes, creating a coherent office policy focused on communication with the patient and other providers, urine drug testing, and managing unusual or off-label treatment regimens to prevent diversion.
