Three Pillars of CDC’s PDO Prevention Work 

Improve data quality and track trends



Strengthen state efforts by scaling up effective public health interventions



Supply healthcare providers with resources to improve patient safety

CDC’s Pillars in Action A total of 16 Core VIPP funded states chose one or more PDO prevention-related focus areas including:  10 states (AZ, CO, HI, KY, NC, NE, OR, PA, RI, WA) are working to improve physician/pharmacist participation in or implementation of a prescription drug monitoring program.  8 states (AZ, CO, KY, OH, OK, PA, UT, WA) are working to improve clinical prescribing guidelines and educating prescribers on safe prescribing practices.  8 states (AZ, CO, MD, NE, OK, TN, UT, WA) are working to increase public awareness and education about the risks of prescription drug misuse.  5 states (CO, KY, NE, OH, TN) are working on the proper disposal of prescription drugs.  4 states (MA, KY, OH, RI) are implementing naloxone distribution programs.  OH is implementing Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment programs in healthcare settings.  MD is analyzing data to compare trends in PDO hospital admissions/discharge data and poison control center calls.  KY is working to decrease the number of pain management clinics owned by non health care providers.

CDC’s Pillars in Action Prescription Drug Overdose: Prevention Boost  West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Utah, Oklahoma President’s Budget Initiative  $15.6 million to scale up state-level prevention Advancing research on the epidemic  Evaluating what works to save lives  Building new tools for monitoring the epidemic

Example Program: Boost for State Prevention Advance and evaluate comprehensive state-level interventions for preventing prescription drug overdose in 3 areas: • Enhancing and maximizing PDMPs

• Improving and evaluating public insurer mechanisms • Evaluating state-level laws, policies, and regulations

“It is one of the happy incidents of the federal system that a single courageous state may, if its citizens choose, serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country.” –Justice Louis Brandeis
