A nationwide nonprofit movement
One million patients.
One commitment.
March 2 A Million is on a mission to help patients recover from knee and hip replacement surgery with fewer than 10 opioid pills prescribed per patient — one surgeon, one patient at a time.

Why we exist
Opioid-free recovery isn't radical. It's the new standard.
Founded by Dr. Andrew Wickline, March 2 A Million is a movement built on over a decade of clinical research proving that patients can recover from major joint surgery with little to no opioids— and recover better for it.
This isn't about suffering through pain. It's about smarter protocols, better support, and a commitment to not trading one crisis for another.
