A bill to prescribe the types of opioid antagonists distributed to certain persons or governmental entities in this state; and to provide for the powers and duties of certain state officers and entities.
The bill would enact a new law to allow a person or governmental entity that was distributed an opioid antagonist by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) at no cost to choose the formulation, type of delivery device, method of administration, or dosage of the opioid antagonist that the person or agency received; however, the bill specifies that the ability to choose the formulation or dosage of an opioid antagonist would not apply if that formulation or dosage choice jeopardized the DHHS's receipt of Federal funding.
