Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine if opiates are required to achieve appropriate analgesia after hip arthroscopy in outpatient surgery. The investigators hypothesize that patients are frequently prescribed more opiates than are needed after surgery, resulting in excess medications that are at risk for misuse, diversion and contribution to the opioid epidemic
