AI Summary

This bill creates the Overdose Fatality Review Act, which allows counties in Michigan to establish multidisciplinary Overdose Fatality Review Teams to review and prevent deaths from drug overdoses. The teams can gather confidential information from various sources, including healthcare providers and social service agencies, to identify systematic barriers and recommend evidence-based prevention and intervention strategies. The teams are required to submit annual reports on overdose fatalities and their recommendations, and the Department of Health and Human Services must aggregate this information in a report to the governor and legislative committees. The bill also provides for civil penalties if team members knowingly disclose confidential information.
