About
Through the HIIN contract, Atrium Health established an ambitious outcomes metric around the number of reversals for opioid over-sensation using Naloxone, a medication to prevent overdose by opioids. The HIIN goal was for each hospital to decrease the use of Naloxone by 20 percent from a baseline value in 2015. Atrium Health has reduced the use by 30-40 percent and current work is to maintain the success while educating patients about how to safely take opioids.
