Disclaimer This project was supported by Grant No. 2017-PM-BX-K026 (Data-Driven Responses to Prescription Drug Misuse in Kentucky) awarded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) to the Kentucky Injury Prevention and Research Center as bona fide agent for the Kentucky Department for Public Health.

The BJA is a component of the Department of Justice’s Office of Justice Program, which includes the Bureau of Justice Statistics, the National Institute of Justice, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, the Office of Victims Crime, and the SMART Office.

Kentucky State Senate Bill 32 (2017) mandated that drug conviction data be made available in KASPER effective July 1, 2018. Education to prescribers and dispensing pharmacists on how to interpret this data in the context of patient care and opioid prescribing is needed to help prevent unintended consequences. The webcasts below have been developed to help prescribers (physicians, dentists, and nurse practitioners) and pharmacists answer the following questions regarding Kentucky State Senate Bill 32 and drug conviction data in KASPER:

• What Have We Learned?
• What Does it Mean?
• What Should I Do?
