Requires a federal study and guidance on routine fentanyl testing for overdose patients in emergency rooms.
Tyler's Law would require the government to study if and how hospital emergency rooms should routinely test overdose patients for fentanyl. This would lead to new federal guidance for hospitals and clinicians to inform practices for patients experiencing an overdose.
Today, there is no federal requirement for the government to study fentanyl testing in hospital emergency rooms or to issue guidance on whether it should be a routine procedure for overdose patients. If this bill becomes law, the Secretary of Health and Human Services would be required to complete a study on fentanyl testing within one year and then issue official guidance within six months after the study is finished.
