By Lenny Bernstein Lenny Bernstein Reporter covering health and medicine Email Bio Follow April 18 at 6:02 PM The Trump administration announced an ambitious program Thursday to reduce deaths from opioid overdoses by 40 percent over three years in hard-hit communities across several states.
Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar suggested instead a system under which an arrested user might be handed off from police to a drug court to treatment and then to agencies that provide housing, counseling and other support. RTI International, a nonprofit research institute in North Carolina, was awarded $25.5 million to pool and coordinate data generated for the research.
But even now, it remains difficult for users to find medically assisted treatment with buprenorphine, methadone or naltrexone, which control cravings and are the accepted standard of care. The National Academy of Sciences concluded last month that most people with an opioid use disorder receive no treatment at all, and only a fraction of those who do have access to those drugs.

Cool. So it’s taken care. All Good. SMH 🤦♂️
