Unmet needs persist for patients with migraine, particularly for women and those in marginalized communities or who present to emergency care settings. To address these disparities, diagnosis and implementation of appropriate pharmacotherapy while factoring in social drivers of health and access must be prioritized. Particularly given the recent position statement from the American Headache Society endorsing the use of calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor antagonists (CGRP-RAs) for first-line prevention of migraine, the need for primary care, women’s health and emergency medicine involvement to help all patients get greater access to the latest effective, evidence-based treatment is particularly imperative.
In this CME Outfitters Snack, expert faculty will address the educational needs of non-migraine specialist healthcare practitioners and the common challenges the multidisciplinary care team faces, including shared decision-making practices when determining the best treatment options.
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to better:
