The bill aims to enhance the accessibility of overdose information for law enforcement and emergency service providers in Washington State. It mandates the creation of an interface between the Washington emergency medical services information system and the overdose detection mapping application program. This interface will ensure that all law enforcement agencies and emergency service providers have universal access to both fatal and nonfatal overdose data.

To protect individual privacy, the bill stipulates that the overdose data must be aggregated by zip code, adhering to the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and other privacy considerations. This initiative is intended to improve the response to overdose incidents and facilitate better resource allocation for addressing substance use issues in the state.
