The shift to outpatient orthopedic surgery has raised the stakes on post-operative pain management. Health systems and ASCs are under pressure to reduce opioid exposure while maintaining effective pain control and avoiding readmissions.
The NOPAIN Act changes the math. It opens a new Medicare reimbursement pathway for qualifying non-opioid therapies in outpatient settings, giving clinical and operational leaders a reason to revisit how they manage recovery.
Join orthopedic surgeon Stephanie Muh, MD, of University of Pittsburgh/UPMC and Tammy Smittle, RN, BSN, COO and CNO of Northwest Hills Surgical Hospital, on July 14, 11 a.m. - 12 p.m. CT, for a practical look at the clinical, operational and financial implications of the NOPAIN Act.
