National Opioid Settlement: Beyond the $45 BILLION | Pain Pod

FORTY-FIVE BILLION DOLLARS (approximately of course) and an appreciable number of concrete efforts and responsibilities, that’s the National Opioid Settlement! On this episode of the Pain Pod, we discuss the details of the National Opioid Settlement in respect to financials, controlled substance programs, and specifically the “red flags” stated within.  We’re American (although, there are Pain Pod international listeners!), and this affects literally everyone in our communities, families, friends, and professions, so let’s take a moment to review the in’s and out’s of the $45B and much, much more. Come one, come all, to the Pain Pod!!!
