MISSION: We represent a multi-specialty group of Indiana providers who are committed to working to mitigate the harm to our communities as it pertains to the opioid crisis.

First, we are dedicated to the idea that in order to effectively solve this problem, providers from across the spectrum and across our state must be actively engaged to share both challenges and solutions. We commit to working together to disseminate new evidence and best practices and to develop innovative ideas and solutions that we believe will make patients in our communities safer as it pertains to better and safer prescribing of prescription drugs, reduction in overprescribing and lessening the harm from illicit drugs.

Second, our committee is to give collective feedback to the Attorney General as it relates to potential legislation in the realm of opioids and controlled substances. We recognize the profound complexities surrounding the opioid epidemic and remain convinced that our collective feedback will inevitably ensure that Indiana creates thoughtful and sustainable solutions to this crisis.
