Voices for Non-Opioid Choices
"The NOPAIN Act Will Expand Access to Non-Opioids for Millions
The NOPAIN Act will ensure patients and their providers have greater choices in their pain management and support broader efforts to combat the deadly effects of the opioid epidemic in our country.
The NOPAIN Act expands patient and provider access to FDA-approved non-opioids in all outpatient surgical settings beginning in 2025 by providing separate Medicare reimbursement for non-opioid therapies.
The NOPAIN Act requires a report to Congress on limitations, gaps, barriers to access, or deficits in Medicare coverage or reimbursement for therapeutic services."
