In this lecture, I will cover the role that access to evidence-based treatment for opioid use disorder, especially medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), play in the current opioid overdose crisis in the United States. I will highlight the data that supports their use, barriers to real-world access to these medications, and some potential clinical and policy approaches to increase access to MOUD.
