AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Opioid Crisis Response: Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond announced a new $12 million opioid settlement, with about 75% headed to cities and counties that joined local lawsuits and the rest available for substance abuse and health initiatives. Heart Care Access: Oklahoma Heart Institute in Tulsa is bringing about 50 nationwide clinical trials to the region, including minimally invasive catheter-based valve treatments that can mean faster recovery and shorter hospital stays. Food Safety Watch: Cyclosporiasis cases in Ohio are still high but trending down, with health officials urging thorough produce washing and safe food handling as the nationwide outbreak eases. Public Health & Schools: Oklahoma’s Education Department ended a federal program that funded third meals for some extended-hours schools, saying USDA guidance required the change while offering a path to switch districts to another meal program. Rural Health Funding Scrutiny: A KFF Health News report says the $50B Rural Health Transformation Program lacks transparency, making it harder to track results and spot problems early. Local Health & Community: Tulsa police say the search for a missing 7-year-old autistic child ended tragically when his body was found near a creek; authorities are turning the case over to the medical examiner. Safety on Oklahoma Roads: A fiery I-44 crash in southwest Oklahoma City killed three people and injured a Chickasaw Lighthorse officer, as officials continue to investigate.
