Using Data to Prevent Opioid Diversion Act of 2018
This bill establishes a new requirement intended to help drug manufacturers and distributors identify and prevent suspicious orders of opioids and reduce rates of diversion.

Additionally, the bill establishes new requirements for reporting, collecting, and sharing information about suspicious orders.
