Clinical Director of the Illinois Prescription Monitoring Program

STATE OF ILLINOIS OPIOID ACTION PLAN

STRATEGY 1: INCREASE PRESCRIPTION MONITORING PROGRAM (PMP) USE BY PROVIDERS

Public Act 100-0564 requires all Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems in Illinois to directly integrate with the PMP

through the automated EHR connection, PMPnow.

STRATEGY 2: REDUCE HIGH-RISK OPIOID PRESCRIBING THROUGH PROVIDER EDUCATION AND

GUIDELINES

The PMP Peer Review Committee reviewed the prescribing practices of 32,749 prescribers and sent letters to 1,239 prescribers who were prescribing opioids at levels higher than recommended guidelines.

UIC study results show that the number of high dose opioid prescriptions per 100,000 opioid prescriptions decreased from 9,909 in January 2015 to 7,450 in June 2019 – a 25% decrease.

The number of patients who were dispensed at least one opioid prescription per 100,000 residents decreased from 18,217 in 2015 to 12,722 in 2018 – a 30% decrease.
