How can a retiring physician provide continuity of care to patients with opioid prescriptions?

Posted October 9, 2024

If the retiring physician cannot find another provider to refer the patient, they can refer the patient to Alberta’s Virtual Opioid Dependency Program.

An additional resource for retiring physicians is the Alberta Health Services Opioid Use Disorder – Telephone Consultation, a province-wide e-consult service.
