Abstract

The aim of our Alternatives to Opiates (ALTO) program was to decrease opioid administration, measured in morphine milliequivalents (MME) per patient encounter, in all Henry Ford Health System (HFHS) emergency departments (EDs) by 15% in the 1-year period after program implementation as compared to the 3-year MME per patient encounter baseline prior to implementation. To our knowledge, this is the largest evaluation of an ALTO protocol completed.
