Since 2010, the PDMP Training and Technical Assistance Center (TTAC), at the Institute for Intergovernmental Research (IIR), with support from the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), has conducted seven (7) state assessments of prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMPs). The assessments have gathered data on PDMP statutes, regulations, policies, and procedures; tracked their changes over time; and identified program trends and candidate best practices. This document details the current status of PDMPs, based on the results of the 2020 state assessment, related to operations, policies/procedures, technological capabilities, authorized users, and PDMP reports.
