BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Strong evidence supports efficacy of medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), but stringent prescribing policies impair access. Many physicians report discomfort prescribing MOUD due to inadequate knowledge. Most medical students believe MOUD training should occur during undergraduate medical education (UME). As legislation surrounding buprenorphine prescribing shifts, it is timely to consider how best to incorporate MOUD training into UME.
METHODS: At the start of 3rd year, all students (n = 290) received a survey regarding experiences working with people with OUDs, and beliefs and knowledge regarding harm reduction and treatment. During orientation, students completed an 8-h online MOUD training. Afterwards, students completed another survey, including questions about training perceptions.
RESULTS: One-third of students (32.8%) completed MOUD training and both surveys. Before training, 60.0% had not heard of the waiver, but 82.1% endorsed interest in prescribing buprenorphine. Despite mixed feelings about training content and delivery, 79.1% believed future classes should receive it. Most thought it should be integrated longitudinally throughout the curriculum rather than as separate online training.
CONCLUSION AND SCIENTIFIC SIGNIFICANCE: Medical students want more MOUD education throughout their training; however, the 8-h online training may be less-than-optimal. As this training is no longer required to prescribe buprenorphine, there is an opportunity to modify the content presented. There is an urgent need for physicians with the knowledge and willingness to treat patients with OUD. Introducing integrated training about MOUD should help future physicians feel confident in their knowledge to treat patients and comfortable applying for the waiver.
