BOSTON — A state panel charged with recommending ways Gov. Deval Patrick can address the state's drug abuse epidemic will discuss and possibly vote on recommendations.
Patrick formed the 36-member Opiate Task Force, which includes mayors, state officials and health care providers, when he declared drug abuse a public health emergency in Massachusetts in March.
The panel, chaired by Public Health Commissioner Cheryl Bartlett, is specifically charged with recommending how to spend $20 million the governor has designated to improve substance abuse treatment programs across the state.
State officials say the number of unintentional opiate overdoses nearly doubled, from 338 in 2000 to 668 in 2012, the most recent annual data available. Officials say an increase in pain medication prescriptions and greater availability of cheap heroin are among the causes.
