Requires county health departments to maintain reserve stock of opioid antidotes to dispense to certain entities on interim basis to ensure uninterrupted supply.
This bill requires New Jersey county health departments to maintain a reserve stock of opioid antidotes (such as naloxone) to ensure continuous availability for specific entities. County health departments must keep enough opioid antidotes to provide interim supplies to law enforcement agencies, emergency medical response entities, schools, and hospital pharmacies when they anticipate running out of their own supply. Entities requesting interim supplies must reimburse the county health department for actual acquisition and delivery costs. The bill allows county health departments to form shared service agreements to purchase opioid antidotes at discounted rates and minimize delivery costs, facilitating implementation of this requirement.
