 \;\n\nThe 2023 AMA Overdose Epidemic Report finds that – despite posit
 ive actions from physicians\, growth in harm reduction services\, and poli
 cy advancements – the nation’s drug overdose and death epidemic is dea
 dlier than ever. The annual report details many of the reasons the epidemi
 c persists\, largely due to illicitly manufactured fentanyl and the contin
 ued lack of meaningful implementation and enforcement of policies that sup
 port affordable\, accessible\, and evidence-based care for patients with s
 ubstance use disorders or pain.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nLearn more in this webinar a
 bout policy actions that need to be taken\, harm reduction strategies that
  should be implemented more broadly\, and efforts by physicians and the AM
 A Substance Use and Pain Care Task Force to end the epidemic.\n\n&nbsp\;\n
