OVERVIEW
SCOPE of Pain is designed to help you safely and effectively manage patients with chronic pain, when appropriate, with opioid analgesics.
SCOPE of Pain is provided by Boston University School of Medicine. National collaborators include the Council of Medical Specialty Societies and the Federation of State Medical Boards.
The FDA has mandated manufacturers of extended release/long-acting (ER/LA) opioid analgesics, as part of a comprehensive Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS), to make available comprehensive prescriber education in the safe use of these medications based on the FDA curriculum known as the Blueprint for Prescriber Education for Extended Release and Long-Acting Opioid (ER/LA) Analgesics. Our curriculum covers all aspects of this blueprint and more to provide a comprehensive educational program.
