Developing a Prescription Opioid Registry across Diverse Health Systems (NIH HEAL Initiative)

Funded by the NIH HEAL Initiative^®

The goal of the proposed study is to expand the prescription opioid registry developed in study CTN 0061, across diverse health systems with harmonized EHR data, and leverage it to answer several key ‘next step’ research questions in response to the opioid crisis.  We propose to adapt and expand the registry to 8 other health systems across the nation, initially within the Health System Node (HSN) to maximize efficiency in the short study timeframe, but with potential to be expanded to other nodes in the future.
