Opioid Overdose Data Collection Enhancement Act
S. 1098 To amend the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 to enhance the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Grant Program, and for other purposes.
Summary
This Act amends the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Grant Program to fund overdose data collection programs that track fatal and nonfatal overdoses and opioid overdose reversal medication administration in near real-time. States, units of local government, coalitions of law enforcement agencies, and Indian tribes can use grant funds to develop and implement data collection tools, including mobile mapping applications, to track overdose incidents and first responder responses. Programs receiving funds must support coordinated responses across public safety, behavioral health, and public health agencies, focus on high-overdose areas, ensure interoperability with existing federal and state data systems, and share data with relevant governments and agencies. Applicants must conduct audits to avoid duplication of existing data collection efforts before implementing new systems.
