Allocative efficiency analysis of strategies to reduce overdose deaths among people with opioid use disorder and history of incarceration in Connecticut

Joy D. Scheidell, Jillian M. Frechette, Tarlise Townsend, Qinlian Zhou et autres

BACKGROUND: While Connecticut has successfully slowed overdose death (ODD) rates, additional progress is necessary. We examined policies that allocate resources with maximal efficiency to reduce ODDs. METHODS: We developed a mechanistic simulation of overdose policies, including medications for opioid use disorder (OUD) …
