NYSACHO PRESIDENT LINDA BEERS TESTIFIES ON NYSACHO’S 2025-26 STATE BUDGET PUBLIC HEALTH PRIORITIES

A modified Delphi process to identify experts’ perceptions of the most beneficial and harmful laws to reduce opioid-related harm

States have enacted multiple types of laws, with a variety of constituent provisions, in response to the opioid epidemic, often simultaneously. This temporal proximity and variation in state-to-state operationalization has resulted in significant challenges for empirical research on their effects. Thus, expert consensus can be helpful to classify laws and their provisions by their degree of helpfulness and impact. Overall, experts rated laws and provisions that facilitated harm reduction efforts and access to MOUD as most helpful. Laws and provisions rated as most harmful criminalized substance use and placed restrictions on access to MOUD. These ratings provide a foundation for evaluating the overall overdose policy environment for each state.
