I commend McCarthy et al for identifying ED opioid prescribing as an issue in 2014, before it was on many radars. Instead of hand wringing and trotting out one shocking statistic after another and shrugging off responsibility, they asked: how can we—as bedside ED doctors—do better? They went on to ask how combining their bedside improvements in patient education, with post visit interventions both at the pharmacy and in the primary care setting could help deliver safer opioid pain control for patients.I am impressed with the time and effort it must have taken to create and deploy the readinglevel-appropriate informational handout, change the labeling practices of local pharmacies and automate the notification of primary care doctors of a new opioid prescription. They went on to avoid the temptation—which must have been strong—to implement the changes without the rigor of a randomized control trial demands.
