Heroin use is skyrocketing across the US for several reasons. As states crack down on pill mills and prescription painkillers become less available and more expensive, many people addicted to opioids like OxyContin are turning to heroin, which is cheaper to obtain illegally. Additionally, pharmaceutical companies making prescription pain pills harder to abuse has led some users to switch to heroin. While painkiller abuse still exceeds heroin use, the rate of new heroin users has increased sharply in recent years. Experts argue that increased funding for treatment programs could help curb the rise in heroin addiction.
Opioid Addiction: New Approach Gives Hope to Patients Awaiting Treatment
Dr. Stacey Sigmon and her colleagues at the University of Vermont have developed a new interim treatment for opioid addiction that can help patients awaiting comprehensive treatment. The interim treatment involves dispensing buprenorphine, a medication approved for opioid addiction treatment, through an electronic dispenser that provides a single daily dose. A 12-week trial showed this interim treatment helped waitlisted opioid dependent participants experience abstinence from illicit drug use while awaiting intensive care treatment.

Vision Session: PEW Foundation - One Patient, One Pharmacy, One Prescriber: How Patient Review and Restriction Programs Can Help Address Rx Drug Abuse
WV Newsletter March 2015
West Virginia has high rates of opioid and benzodiazepine prescription and misuse according to the document. It ranks third highest for opioid prescriptions per capita and first for benzodiazepine prescriptions. In 2014 over 400,000 opioid prescriptions and 300,000 benzodiazepine prescriptions were filled for West Virginia Medicaid recipients. West Virginia Medicaid has policies like quantity limits and a lock-in program to curb prescription drug abuse and encourages providers and recipients to follow best practices for responsible prescribing and use.

The document discusses the increasing abuse of heroin in the United States and its link to prescription drug abuse. It provides data from reports showing that people who abuse prescription painkillers are 19 times more likely to abuse heroin. With increased demand, drug trafficking organizations have increased heroin availability and purity. Law enforcement data demonstrates rising heroin seizures and overdose deaths linked to increased prescription opioid abuse. The document examines how some prescription opioid abusers may be turning to cheaper heroin as painkiller restrictions take effect.

The document summarizes the opioid epidemic in the United States and the response from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). It provides data showing that prescription opioids are the most commonly abused drugs and that opioid overdose deaths have increased significantly since 1999. The HHS Secretary launched an Opioid Initiative in 2015 focused on improving opioid prescribing practices, increasing access to naloxone to reverse overdoses, and expanding medication-assisted treatment for opioid use disorders. Partnerships with health organizations aim to train providers and increase access to prevention and treatment services. States like Washington that implemented comprehensive approaches have seen declines in overdose deaths and hospitalizations.

Opioid Surveillance and Policy: A Canadian Perspective by Tara Gomes, MHSc
Opioid Surveillance and Policy: A Canadian Perspective by Tara Gomes, MHScUniversity of Michigan Injury Center
This document summarizes opioid prescribing trends, policies, and their impacts in Canada and at the US-Canada border. It finds that while Canada and the US have high opioid consumption, Canadian policies like introducing tamper-deterrent OxyContin and a prescription monitoring program reduced potentially inappropriate prescribing by 1%. However, over 1 million such prescriptions remain, and inconsistencies in provincial policies and lack of prescriber access to prescription data limit the policies. The approval of generic long-acting oxycodone in Canada did not increase trafficking into the US, though losses cannot be tracked. Ongoing evaluation is needed to improve policies around opioid availability and curb misuse across the border.CDC Initiatives & Priorities to Address the Prescription Drug Overdose Crisis...

Midwestern states have adopted various harm reduction strategies to address the opioid epidemic, including syringe exchange programs, medication-assisted treatment, overdose prevention, and prescription drug monitoring programs. Syringe exchanges provide sterile supplies to injection drug users to prevent disease spread, and are permitted in some form in most Midwestern states. All states except Kansas allow naloxone access to reverse overdoses. Several states mandate medication-assisted treatment coverage by Medicaid and most have implemented prescription drug monitoring programs, though requirements vary between states.

The document discusses efforts to address the opioid epidemic in the United States, including:
- Increasing registration and use of prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMPs) to track opioid prescriptions.
- Reducing the stigma around both pain and substance use disorder to increase access to comprehensive treatment.
- Expanding access to naloxone to prevent overdose deaths and "Good Samaritan" legal protections.
- Ongoing education of physicians on safe opioid prescribing and alternative pain management strategies.

This document discusses strategies to curb prescription drug abuse, specifically opioid abuse, in West Virginia. It notes that West Virginia has the highest drug overdose mortality rate in the US and clinicians there write a high number of opioid prescriptions. It explores reasons for high prescribing rates and discusses solutions like improving education for patients and doctors, changing financial incentives, using prescription drug monitoring programs, and following CDC guidelines for safer opioid prescribing. Alternative therapies for pain management and the role of EDIE in monitoring patients and interfacing with PDMPs are also covered. The document advocates for internal referrals to pain specialists and multidisciplinary approaches to pain care.
Opioid Epidemic in Rural America
The abuse of prescription painkillers and illicit opioids has become a public health concern in the United States of America. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that more than 1,000 Americans are given treatment in emergency departments every day for misusing prescription opioids.

This document discusses the use of poison center data to track trends in prescription drug abuse and overdoses. It shows that between 1999-2011, prescription opioid exposures reported to poison centers increased over 150% in the US and 164% in Kentucky. Specific opioids like oxycodone, hydrocodone, and tramadol also increased substantially. Poison center data can provide real-time surveillance to identify emerging problems and formulate strategies to address them.

Mystified by MAT? Navigating the Changing Regulatory Landscape Around Medicat...Epstein Becker Green
Part of a "first Thursdays" fall webinar series hosted by Behavioral Health Association of Providers, Epstein Becker & Green, P.C., and Nelson Hardiman, LLP.
Presented by:
Francesca R. Ozinal – Associate, Epstein Becker Green
Andrew Martin – Chief Operating Officer, Behavioral Health Association of Providers
Despite reports identifying medication-assisted treatment (MAT) as a critical element of evidence-based treatment, confusion concerning who may dispense, associated compliance requirements, and the relationship between MAT provision and behavioral health providers continues to impede access to MAT.
This webinar will review key licensing and operational issues concerning the various types of MAT, including buprenorphine, naltrexone, and methadone, as well as misperceptions and key compliance issues in instituting MAT.

1) Prescription drug abuse in the U.S. has reached epidemic levels, with overdose deaths, opioid sales, and treatment admissions all rising in parallel since 1999. 2) To reverse the epidemic, efforts are needed to improve prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMPs), ensure safer opioid prescribing practices, expand access to treatment including buprenorphine, and support state-level prevention strategies. 3) Early evidence suggests that real-time, universal PDMPs; mandating their use; integrating them into electronic health records; and comprehensive laws can all help to reduce doctor shopping, opioid prescribing, and overdose deaths.

This document summarizes a presentation on insights from state policies and interventions to curb prescription drug overdoses. It describes several interventions:
1) PRIMUM, a system in North Carolina that alerts prescribers to patients' risk of misusing or abusing opioids at the point of care.
2) A project in Rhode Island that developed protocols to improve opioid prescription safety for trauma patients, including alerts if prescriptions exceed dosage thresholds and requiring naloxone co-prescriptions.
3) A study in Pennsylvania that used Medicaid claims data to identify risk factors for opioid overdoses, such as high dosage and multiple prescribers/pharmacies, to target high-risk patients.

This document summarizes the opioid crisis in the United States from 2000 to 2014. It shows that the number of opioid-related overdose deaths more than tripled during this period, increasing from about 8,000 to over 28,000. Additionally, 7.9 million Americans aged 12 or older met the criteria for an illicit drug use disorder in 2013-2014 but only 20% received treatment. The document outlines actions by the Obama administration to address the crisis and increase funding for treatment. It emphasizes that stories can help reduce stigma and that recovery is possible through working together.

Summary of the policy
The opioid crisis has been a significant public health concern in the United States since the late 1990s. The inability to develop strategic legislation and regulation to control the use of opioid has been critical to the development of the opioid crisis. The opioid crisis involves the use of both prescription and non-prescription opioid drugs. According to the Center for Disease control and prevention, the rate of opioid addiction has been significantly increasing over the years. From 1999 to 2016, at least 350,000 individuals have died from related opioid addiction, which includes prescription and illicit opioids.
Unlicensed pharmacies and overdependence on these drugs in pain management have been major concepts, which have created a challenging setting where the abuse of prescription drugs can be controlled. The underlying basis of this problem is the current assumption in the United States that medical practitioners can cure almost everything. Even though it is essential to understand that prescription drugs are effective in pain management, the drugs are required to be offered based on the prescriptions issued (McDonald & Lambert, 2016). It is also noted that they should not be used regularly since they created a very detrimental habit to patient wellbeing because they have addictive properties, which make it dangerous when consumed in large portions.
Confronting opioid addiction requires significant efforts by all stakeholders in healthcare in ensuring that there is a common objective in providing that there is a crucial focus in integrating quality focus in preventing opioid addiction. Considering the fact that a prescribed drug mainly propagates opioid addiction. It is essential to ensure that they are issued through consideration of critical healthcare knowledge regarding the admissibility of opioid drugs (Bihel, 2016). Nurses have a significant role to play regarding the overall development of the opioid addiction crisis. Critical issues that have been identified in opioid drug abuse include improper use, lack of the required knowledge and related interpretation in the use of opioid prescribed drugs and decreased regulation and legislation from the government regarding the existing concern on the increasing addiction levels across the country.
Players
The increase in opioid crisis has had a direct and indirect influence on different stakeholders. Therefore developing a strong focus on essential strategies that can help limit the overall impact of the opioid crisis on the lives of an individual is critical. The national institute on drug abuse reported that in 2015, 33,091 deaths were reported be.

From 1999 to 2016, at least 350,000 individuals have died from related opioid addiction, which includes prescription and illicit opioids.
Unlicensed pharmacies and overdependence on these drugs in pain management have been major concepts, which have created a challenging setting where the abuse of prescription drugs can be controlled. The underlying basis of this problem is the current assumption in the United States that medical practitioners can cure almost everything. Even though it is essential to understand that prescription drugs are effective in pain management, the drugs are required to be offered based on the prescriptions issued (McDonald & Lambert, 2016). It is also noted that they should not be used regularly since they created a very detrimental habit to patient wellbeing because they have addictive properties, which make it dangerous when consumed in large portions.
Confronting opioid addiction requires significant efforts by all stakeholders in healthcare in ensuring that there is a common objective in providing that there is a crucial focus in integrating quality focus in preventing opioid addiction. Considering the fact that a prescribed drug mainly propagates opioid addiction. It is essential to ensure that they are issued through consideration of critical healthcare knowledge regarding the admissibility of opioid drugs (Bihel, 2016). Nurses have a significant role to play regarding the overall development of the opioid addiction crisis. Critical issues that have been identified in opioid drug abuse include improper use, lack of the required knowledge and related interpretation in the use of opioid prescribed drugs and decreased regulation and legislation from the government regarding the existing concern on the increasing addiction levels across the country.

Summary of the policy
The opioid crisis has been a significant public health concern in the United States since the late 1990s. The inability to develop strategic legislation and regulation to control the use of opioid has been critical to the development of the opioid crisis. The opioid crisis involves the use of both prescription and non-prescription opioid drugs. According to the Center for Disease control and prevention, the rate of opioid addiction has been significantly increasing over the years. From 1999 to 2016, at least 350,000 individuals have died from related opioid addiction, which includes prescription and illicit opioids.

America's Opioid Prescription Rate Goes Down, But Drug Abuse Problem Remains
America's Opioid Prescription Rate Goes Down, But Drug Abuse Problem RemainsCalifornia Prescription Drug Abuse Helpline
Seeking medical attention for chronic pain is often the primary reason behind prescribing opioids. The practice of prescribing opioid painkillers has been so rampant that it led to an epidemic, which the United States has been struggling with for decades. Although medical practices, guidelines and recommendations explicitly point out that prescribing opioid pain pills should always outweigh the risks, they continue to wreak havoc across the North American continent.Cms opioid-misuse-strategy-2016
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services outlines their opioid misuse strategy to address the national opioid epidemic. Their strategy includes 4 priority areas: 1) implementing more effective strategies to reduce risks of opioid use disorder, overdoses, and inappropriate prescribing; 2) expanding access to naloxone to reverse overdoses; 3) expanding screening, diagnosis, and treatment of opioid use disorder including medication-assisted treatment; and 4) increasing use of evidence-based practices for pain management. Opioid misuse has led to alarming increases in overdoses and deaths, and CMS aims to combat this through promoting safe opioid use, improving access to treatment, and alternative pain management options.

This document summarizes the growing problem of prescription drug abuse in America. Key points include:
- Prescription drug abuse is now the nation's fastest growing drug problem, with opioids like oxycodone being abused at increasing rates.
- Education of healthcare providers, patients, and the public is needed to increase awareness of the dangers of prescription drug misuse and how to properly use and dispose of medications.
- Tracking programs like prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMPs) in states can help identify "doctor shoppers" and reduce diversion, though more research is still needed on their effectiveness.
- A multifaceted approach including education, monitoring, safe disposal, and enforcement is needed to address the crisis of prescription drug

The director of the CDC discussed the prescription drug and opioid overdose epidemic in the United States. He noted that over 145,000 lives have been lost to prescription opioid overdoses in the past decade as opioid prescribing has increased 4-fold since 1999. The CDC is working with multiple states experiencing outbreaks of HIV linked to injection drug use. The director outlined a potential "technical package" of interventions including improving prescribing practices, increasing access to treatment, reducing drug availability, and public awareness campaigns. Progress requires a comprehensive, evidence-based public health approach with law enforcement and community involvement.
Four Effective Opioid Interventions for Healthcare Leaders
The crisis of opioid abuse in the U.S. is well known. What may not be so well known are the ways for clinicians and healthcare systems to minimize misuse of these addictive drugs. This article describes the risks for patients when they are prescribed opioids and the need for opioid intervention. It offers four approaches that healthcare systems can take to tackle the crisis while still relieving pain and suffering for the patients they serve:
Use data and analytics to inform strategies that reduce opioid availability
Adopt prescription drug monitoring programs to prevent misuse
Adopt evidence-based guidelines
Consider promising state strategies for dealing with prescription opioid overdose
Opioid misuse is a public health epidemic, but treatments are available and it’s time for those involved in the delivery of healthcare to change practices.
MedTech_Project01_SG06
MedTech Healthcare Group is the largest provider of outpatient substance abuse treatment programs in Westmoreland and Indiana counties in Pennsylvania, operating three clinics over the past decade. It has treated thousands of patients for opioid addiction and helped reduce the impact of the opioid epidemic. MedTech is on track to generate $3 million in revenue and $900,000-1 million in EBITDA in 2015, with steady growth since its founding in 2006. The behavioral healthcare industry, particularly medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid addiction, represents a large and growing market opportunity.

The document discusses the opioid crisis in the United States, including the increased prescribing and use of opioids for chronic pain management over the past 20 years. This has led to higher rates of addiction, overdose deaths, and a resurgence of heroin use. The document argues that more effective approaches are needed beyond just administering naloxone to reverse overdoses. It advocates adopting aspects of the physician health program model, which provides long-term treatment, monitoring, and support, and has shown success rates of 80% for physicians with substance use disorders after 5 years. The document concludes more structured support programs are needed for non-healthcare professionals recovering from opioid addiction and overdose.

Mmt aproach to young DU-s
Methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) is an effective treatment for opioid dependence that reduces drug use and criminal behavior while improving physical and mental health. MMT involves replacing opioids with the long-acting opioid methadone, which prevents withdrawal symptoms and drug cravings without causing intoxication. MMT is most effective when combined with counseling and other social support services. While MMT is also used to treat adolescents, their treatment may differ due to incomplete brain development and greater risks. Comprehensive, individualized treatment addressing an adolescent's medical, psychological and social needs is important.

MPs in the UK are advocating for more relaxed rules regarding e-cigarettes. They argue that vaping is less harmful than smoking normal cigarettes and can help people quit smoking. The report calls for more freedom in e-cigarette advertising, relaxed regulations and taxes on e-cigarettes, and annual reviews of the health effects of vaping. It also discusses allowing vaping in public places like public transport. The responses to the report were mixed, with health groups wary of marketing to youth but supportive of helping smokers quit, while the public expressed concerns about unknown health risks of vaping in public.
What is Public Policy and How Does it Affect me? | Jenn Galandy
Public policy refers to government policies that affect the whole population and are created in response to issues in a community. Politicians, bureaucrats, media, interest groups, and voters all play roles in the policymaking process through different tactics to influence policy. The average person can also influence policy through voting or getting involved in policy discussions. Public policy directly affects individuals through its impact on daily life, hobbies, and communities. For example, health policy in Alberta determines healthcare funding through taxes and provides free access to services, engaging citizens to evaluate spending and quality of services.

Canada's Response to the Opioid crisis | Jenn Galandy
- 1. THE OPIOID CRISIS J E N N G A L A N D Y C A N A D A ’ S R E S P O N S E T O
- 2. OPIOID OVERDOSE CRISIS Canada is currently in the midst of an opioid overdose crisis. The Public Health Agency of Canada revealed that in 2017, almost 3,000 people lost their lives in opioid-related deaths. That is averaging to about eight deaths a day. The opioid crisis has been linked to the rise of overdoses in both prescription opioids and fentanyl. 72% of these deaths are due to fentanyl, a drug that is described to be even stronger than morphine. Due to the crisis, the Minister of Health has made addressing this issue a top priority and with the help of the government. Since the issue was brought to concern in 2016, several policy changes have been implemented as a response.
- 3. FEDERAL ACTION To address the opioid crisis, the Health Portfolio aims to reform the approach to drug policy making it more collaborative, compassionate, comprehensive, and evidence-based. Based on the values of the Health Portfolio, the Minister of Health has created a new Canadian drugs and substances strategy. This strategy focuses on a new approach to drug policy that focuses on a strong foundation in the evidence, the restoration of harm reduction, prevention, treatment, and enforcement. By responding to the crisis through prevention, treatment, harm reduction, and enforcement, the government of Canada is devoted to targeting this public health emergency. The following are a few of the actions that followed the change of drug policy.
- 4. GOOD SAMARITAN DRUG OVERDOSE ACT The Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act offers some legal protection for those who call for help in the case of an emergency overdose. Individuals are protected from charges related to possession of controlled substance as well as breaching conditions set by parole, probation, etc. The act was put in place in the hopes that it will reduce the fear of police arriving at an overdoses scene and help to influence others to step up and save a life.
- 5. SUPERVISED CONSUMPTION SITES SCS offers a safe and clean place to consume illegal substances, access to emergency medical care, testing for infectious diseases, access to sterile drug equipment and proper disposal. The primary goals of SCS are to help prevent overdose death, reduce the transmissions of diseases, and help to make a smoother transition to drug treatment services
- 6. MAKING NALOXONE FREELY AVAILABLE Naloxone is a fast acting drug that can reverse an opioid overdose. This allows time to get overdose victims time to get to the hospital before it is too late. Across the provinces and territories of Canada, people can receive Naloxone at pharmacies without the need of any prescription. Some pharmacies are even offering free Naloxone kits.
- 7. CONCLUSION Although Canada’s opioid crisis is far from being over, the government has taken initiatives in helping to decrease the death toll. This crisis is an incredibly complex health and social issue that will require time to see change.
