If you didn’t believe Biden was willing to kill people for political purposes, including with bull****, non-science mask orders and shutdowns in the energy industry, which as with Carter are designed to destroy jobs and lives (and which will ultimately double your electric bill, as Germany discovered) now we have this:
President Biden had promised during the campaign to abolish the licensing requirement, known as the “X-waiver,” which President Trump’s Department of Health and Human Services moved to nix a week before he left office. After France eliminated a similar regulation, the number of patients receiving buprenorphine increased tenfold, and opioid overdose deaths dropped by 80% in four years. Yet to the astonishment of the medical community, the Biden administration abruptly reversed the change on Jan. 27, arguing it didn’t pass legal muster and the White House budget office hadn’t signed off.
What’s being discussed here is an enhanced licensing requirement for physicians to prescribe a particular drug for the treatment of opioid addiction. Unlike prescribing opioids for pain, which just requires that you be an MD, to prescribe this you had to have a specific license and additional training.
“ arguing it didn’t pass legal muster and the White House budget office hadn’t signed off.”
Like it is in the Constitution where the federal government has the right to regulate anything medical.
483 million dollars for National Guard…thats over million dollars for every American citizen! Wtf… why do we have these idiots running our country?
I think you need to check your math.
It’s OPIATE addiction! Correct grammar, amigos! An Opioid is just another name for a communist democrat, like hemmoroid!
No, sorry to say, but somewhere along the line (and I honestly do not remember when), our cool doctor talk changed from opiate to opioid. My assumption is that as so many synthetic opiate-like drugs were being synthesized, it was viewed as more general terminology. I confess that it took me a long to time get with the program.
I will say that there is so much irresponsible and uneducated prescribing of buprenorphine (by docs without expertise in treating addictions, simply completing an 8 hr class) for cash only (when they accept insurance for the rest of their practice), I don’t think that making it available for every single MD with a DEA license to prescribe is a good idea. All docs are required to do at least a little CME in use of opioids due to the ‘epidemic.’
The class action lawsuit against the drug company seemed a bit much, but I can tell you who is as much to blame as anyone: JCAHO. Back in the 90s they got on this absurd kick that “pain is the 5th vital sign” and hospitals everywhere got reamed on their reviews for “inadequate assessment and treatment of pain.” This was a huge factor in the increase of pain meds. Then the development of “pain management” as a specialty was the other factor. Suddenly there are docs openly advertising that they are there SPECIFICALLY for pain! Pain cannot be objectively measured, one can only take a patient’s word. So people with degenerative vertebral disease (which shows on xray) could go to pain clinics anywhere & get drugs, whether or not they actually hurt!
I have been through some very painful injuries and conditions, I do not mean to diminish the reality of pain. But it has been a huge scam, and honestly buprenorphine when used by a knowledgeable doc is a godsend. Works very well for pain, as well. Few docs will Rx it for pain, but that was what it was the first approved use.
About the time we thought our “Idiot in Chief” could not do anything more stupid than the previous day, here is what we get !***Massive non-compliance is necessary or just go ahead and have a massive CW and be done with it ! ***Either way, it is a change for the better and inevitable anyway!
