    "abstract": "Study Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and categorize current state-sponsored opioid guidelines which affect Emergency Medicine practice. \nMethods: We conducted a comprehensive search of emergency medicine-specific opioid prescribing guidelines and/or policies in each state to determine current state involvement in emergency medicine opioid prescribing, as well as to evaluate some of the specifics of each guideline or policy.  The search was conducted using an online query and a follow-up email request to each state chapter of ACEP.\nResults: We found that eighteen states had emergency department-specific guidelines. We further organized these into four categories; Limiting Prescriptions for Opioids with 67 total recommendations, Preventing/Diverting Abuse with 56 total recommendations, Addiction related guidelines with 29 total recommendations, and a Community Resources section with 24 total recommendations. Our results showed that current state guidelines focus on providers limiting opioid pain prescriptions and vetting patients for possible abuse/diversion.. \nConclusion: This study highlights the 18 states that have addressed opioid prescribing guidelines and categorizes their efforts to date. It is hoped that this work will provide the basis for similar efforts in other states.",
