The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 144E.123, subdivision 3, to enhance the management and sharing of emergency medical services overdose data. It allows the director or their designees to review prehospital care data, which is classified as private under the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act. The new provisions enable the director to share specific data with the Washington/Baltimore High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area's Overdose Detection Mapping Application Program (ODMAP). This data includes details about overdose incidents such as location, time, fatality status, suspected drug type, naloxone administration, and first responder type.

Additionally, the bill outlines the functionalities of ODMAP, which include secure access for authorized users to report and view overdose incident information in near real-time, as well as the ability to produce maps of confirmed or suspected overdose locations. The information accessed through ODMAP is intended to assist state and local authorities in making informed decisions regarding the allocation of public health, public safety, and educational resources related to overdose monitoring and reporting.
