Official description
Amends the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Systems Act. Makes changes to defined terms. Provides that, upon receipt of a patient care report that documents an overdose, the Department of Public Health (rather than a covered vehicle service provider) shall report the information from a patient care report to the specified organizations. In provisions concerning opioid overdose reporting, provides that overdose information reported by a covered vehicle service provider shall not be used in an opioid use-related criminal investigation, prosecution, welfare checks, or warrant checks of the individual who was treated by the covered vehicle service provider personnel for experiencing the suspected or actual overdose. Provides that any misuse of the information reported by a covered vehicle service provider shall result in, but is not limited to, the Department of Transportation reporting misuse to the Washington/Baltimore High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Overdose Detection Mapping Application or a similar technology platform. Establishes rulemaking authority for the Department concerning standards under which misuse of access may be reported. Prohibits the submission of data that allows for or creates a risk of identification of an individual or individuals experiencing a suspected or actual overdose treated by the covered vehicle service provider personnel. Permits covered vehicle service provider personnel to report overdose surveillance through an identified technology platform for the use of overdose surveillance, as provided. Sets forth additional provisions concerning opioid overdose reporting requirements for the Department.
