October 1–3, 2026.

It is held in Tucson, AZ, US.

Registration costs $895 for M.D., D.O., Ph.D., Allied Health, NP, PA, and retirees.

The target audience is all providers who prescribe opioids in medical, surgical, and outpatient settings.

It is most useful for clinicians who prescribe opioids in medical, surgical or outpatient settings, since the content centres on changed guidelines and appropriate indications and is led by Mayo Clinic physicians and a pharmacist. The credit package is broad, covering physician, pharmacy, nursing and PA credit at the same registration fee for every profession, and a livestream option exists for those who cannot travel to Tucson; clinicians who rarely prescribe opioids would get less from it.

Tucson in early October is still warm, so light clothing suits the JW Marriott, with a layer for cold conference rooms.
