Yesterday, the White House declared the opioid epidemic a “public health emergency“. The preliminary figures from the National Center for Health Statistics suggest that there were more than 64,000 drug overdose deaths in 2016. In 2015, over 33,000 Americans died from opioid overdose. The crisis is well known at this time, with every demographic being affected.
One of the recommendations given as part of the emergency declaration was a call for increased access to telemedicine services, allowing patients in remote locations, or living in communities with doctor shortages, to access Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT).
