Although the Blueprint for Prescriber Continuing Education Program defines the expected content of a CME program,1 it uses language that is open to interpretation. For example it states “prescribers should understand how to assess patients for treatment with ER/LA opioids” and “prescribers should be familiar with how to initiate therapy, modify dose, and discontinue use of ER/LA opioids.”
