HF 1429 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Emergency medical services overdose data modified.

HF 1429 amends Minnesota law to allow emergency medical services (EMS) overdose data to be shared with the ODMAP system. Specifically, it permits the health director to share incident-level location data with ODMAP, a tool that securely maps near real-time overdose locations and reports. This enables public health and safety officials to monitor overdose trends and allocate resources like treatment programs or prevention services more effectively. The bill directly affects EMS providers and state health agencies handling overdose data, while maintaining privacy protections under Minnesota's data practices law.

MODERATE

The bill was updated from its introduction to its first engrossment, reflecting changes made during legislative review. The most significant substantive change involves expanding how overdose data is shared with a federal drug trafficking program. Previously, the bill only allowed the director to share 'incident level location data' with the Overdose Detection Mapping Application Program (ODMAP). The new version authorizes the sharing of a much broader set of details, including fatality status, suspected drug types, naloxone administration records, and first responder types, in addition to location data.

Scope change

The bill's scope regarding data sharing with the federal ODMAP program was expanded to include specific medical and operational details about overdose incidents, moving from a limited location-only disclosure to a comprehensive data exchange.

REQUIREMENT

The requirement for data shared with ODMAP was broadened from just location data to include fatality status, suspected drug type, naloxone administration, and first responder type.

The description of ODMAP's capabilities was updated to remove the specific phrase 'certain information,' clarifying that authorized users can view information about overdose incidents reported.

TECHNICAL

A new line item (1.20) was added to the bill's numbering sequence.

The document title and posting date were updated to reflect the bill's status as the '1st Engrossment' and a new posting date of June 3, 2025.
