West Virginia

 Update:  May 2010

 
This session was exciting for us! We partnered with the Standard Register, working with legislators to create an Official Prescription Program in West Virginia. The diversion of prescription drugs has devastating effects on communities across the state. Implementing this program will not only save real dollars in prescription fraud, it will also significantly reduce the amount of prescription drugs that make their way onto our streets and into the hands of potential addicts. We commend everyone who worked so hard to get this legislation passed and for the legislators who saw the problem and took the much needed steps to address prescription fraud and abuse.
