The objective was to examine the association between clinicians’ opioid-prescribing group and patients’ outcomes among patients treated in the emergency department (ED). This was a retrospective cohort study. The setting was EDs of the US Military Health System (MHS). Patients were 181,557 Army active-duty opioid-naïve (no fill in past 180 days) patients with an index encounter to the ED between October 2010 and September 2016. Exposure was patients classified by opioid-prescribing tier of the treating ED clinician: top-, middle- or bottom-third relative to the clinician’s peers in the same emergency department. Follow-up measurement was from 31 to 365 days after the index encounter. The primary outcome was long-term opioid prescriptions (LTOPs) defined as 180 (or more) days’supply within the follow-up window. We also computed the total morphine milligram equivalents (MME) and total opioid days’ supply. Secondary measures were any repeat ED encounter, any hospitalization, any sick leave, and any military-duty restriction. We found a 2.5-fold variation in opioid prescribing rates among clinicians in the same MHS ED. Controlling for sample demographics, reason for encounter, and military background, in multivariate analyses the odds of receiving 180-days opioid supply during follow-up were 1.19 (95% CI 1.01, 1.40, p <.05) for the top opioid exposure group and 1.37 (95% CI 1.19, 1.57, p<.001) for the middle opioid exposure group compared to the bottom exposure group; and there were significant increases in total opioid days’ supply and total MME. There were no differences in secondary outcome measures. In a relatively healthy sample of Army soldiers, variation in opioid exposure defined by clinician’s prescribing history was associated with increased odds of long-term opioid prescription and increase in opioid volume, but not in functional outcomes.
