“Opioid-related overdoses have touched every community in Florida and our hospital caregivers are among those serving on the front lines of this devastating epidemic. That’s why we are pleased to work with our community partners at the Florida Alcohol & Drug Abuse Association (FADAA) to increase hospital partnerships with community-based behavioral health providers. We are grateful to Aetna Foundation for committing resources in Florida to reduce opioid-related deaths and overdoses. With Aetna’s support, Florida Hospital Association and FADAA members will collaborate to ensure patients are safely discharged into the program best suited to serve their individual needs. Using data and real-time feedback to identify and share best practices, our efforts are saving lives and improving health across Florida.”
