        They need to make it so treatment for rehabilitation is available for everyone . And it is a 30 day program not 10 to 14 days. I'm speaking because my children suffered from addiction and the programs are not long enough to get the well. And the help they need to stay clean

        Mr. Azar, I am a pharmacist, and the founder of a technology startup. We were founded EXCLUSIVELY with the opioid epidemic in mind. Would love to dialogue more about the barriers to entry as a startup in trying to tackle this solution.

        If better treatment means (1) more access to treatment, (2) more access to all medications used to treat addiction, (3) harm reduction approaches, (4) recovery-oriented care, and (5) peer recovery coaches ... well, then I’m in. Anything less than comprehensive care isn’t serious.

        One missing and ignored aspect: patient satisfaction scores/use of pain scores and their use for reimbursement or certification by licensing agencies such as JCAHO.

        What about curing pain. Is that off the table. Also where is the vision to lower the prevalence of pain.

        As a chronic pain patient, I hope you don't punish people who really need their pain medications or make it more difficult to get them from a pharmacy. @DEAHQ
