Opioid FAQ for commercial providers

To aid in fighting the opioid epidemic, and thus reduce health risks in our community, we are working toward lowering the total dose of opioids that a member can receive per day. This measurement is called MME (Morphine Milligram Equivalent). We are gradually lowering the MME threshold through May 22, 2022.
