Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

EMS must report opioid overdoses

EMS staff in cities with 1,000,000+ residents must report every suspected or actual opioid overdose they treat and then release or transport. They must finish the patient care report within 24 hours. The report must list the date and time, the location in latitude and longitude to no more than four decimals, whether a reversal drug was given, and whether the case was fatal or nonfatal at first contact and during transport. The provider must send this data to the HIDTA Overdose Mapping Application or another secure, Department‑approved government platform. These reports help officials track and respond to overdose spikes.

Privacy and immunity for overdose reports

Mapping data cannot include any information that could identify the person who overdosed. The data cannot be used for opioid criminal investigations, prosecutions, welfare checks, or warrant checks of that person. Reporting through the approved platform is allowed under HIPAA exceptions and can only support public health and safety. The Department can flag and set rules for any misuse. EMS providers and staff who report in good faith are immune from civil and criminal liability for making the report.

State uses data to prevent overdoses

The Department shares overdose information to find areas that need help and to direct harm‑reduction resources. It may work through Regional Care Coordination Advisory Councils or create a risk‑reduction group. Partners can include public health agencies, health care, harm‑reduction providers, first responders, and law enforcement. The focus is harm reduction, not criminal prosecution. The Department sets performance measures, tracks impact, and uses the data to build evidence‑based strategies to prevent overdoses.
