This is the Dec, 2015 IPRCC meeting that talks about HHS’ plan and the CDC guidelines. Starting at 4hrs, 18 min, we have Wanda Jones, principal deputy to asst. sec of HHS speak about how HHS planned the guidelines. This is really interesting info.

At 4 hrs 41 min, the CDC rep presents the overview of the guidelines. At 4:52 sec., the Q and A’s. This really shows how there were a lot of concerns from the research panel (NPS) about the consequences and methods/bias involved in the formation of the CDC GLs.

At 5 hrs 24 min we have the evidence that shows the IPRCC (NPS) was not happy about the CDC guidelines and had a discussion about how to handle that. Listen carefully. videocast.nih.gov/watch=17523

At 5hr 36 min, 20 secs: “It’s naive to think it won’t have an impact. (The cdc gls) In fact, it flies in the face of everything the NPS stands for”. videocast.nih.gov/watch=17523

At 5 hr 18 min, 20 secs: “I looked 5x & I’d thought at least one of the contexts that might be reviewed rapidly was to take a population who are doing well on opioids. We know there are at least a mill. ppl on OxyContin. Not all those ppl are dropping dead or abusing drugs”. 1/2

..”Some of the ppl are doing OK! There was no review of anybody doing well on opioids to understand whether there are any patient characteristics predictive of who might do well. So to me, that spoke to a kind of BIAS. So there we are.” 2/2
