California Doctors Now Must Check Computer Database Before Prescribing Opioids

boardvitals.com

As of today (Wednesday), California doctors are required to check a statewide computer database before writing a prescriotion for an opioid or other controlled substance.  More from KVCR's Ken Vincent.

Ken Vincent has retired. We appreciate the way he shared his expertise with many of our young interns and reporters over the nearly eight years he spent as KVCR's lead journalist and Morning Edition host. We wish him a happy and relaxing retirement as he spends more time in his garden and, as he mentioned, more time on the golf course. Thanks Ken!
