What happens when states expand school Medicaid? Our new study @jamahealthforum.bsky.social finds that the receipt of school-based health services rises significantly among children affected by parental opioid use disorder, following early state expansions. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

This is extremely promising news - finally! - for the opioid overdose epidemic. Maybe we’re seeing signs of a real turn-around. It’s not a moment to let the Trump regime take us backward on the crisis. We must fully fund NIH, CDC, and Medicaid - and increase MOUD.

New paper - Medicaid "unwinding" associated with net decrease in buprenorphine prescribing for opioid use disorder (some offset from commercial insurance).

Some state policies mitigated this negative impact.

Hats off to @drsumedhagupta.bsky.social for this work!
