We acknowledge a potential bias when industry funds CME, but this is the current system of prescriber education in the United States. Unfortunately, government and industry are currently the only 2 viable funding sources that exist, and despite the need of 100 million patients in the United States in chronic pain,2 there remain serious gaps in undergraduate and postgraduate medical education in pain and addiction medicine and a paucity of non–industry-funded mid-career education.
