Prescription Drug Monitoring Act of 2017

Prescription Drug Monitoring Act of 2017

This bill requires a state that receives grant funds under the prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) or the controlled substance monitoring program to comply with specified requirements, including a requirement to share its PDMP data with other states. The Department of Justice (DOJ) or Department of Health and Human Services may withhold grant funds from a state that fails to comply.

To facilitate data sharing among states, the bill directs DOJ to award a grant under the Comprehensive Opioid Abuse Grant Program to establish and maintain a data-sharing hub.

Referred to the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, Homeland Security, and Investigations.
