In brief
The Fatal Overdose Reduction Act of 2025 creates a five-year Medicaid demonstration program that authorizes the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to select up to 10 states to establish Health Engagement Hubs. These hubs must provide immediate physical and behavioral health services, peer support, and social services like employment counseling to individuals with opioid and substance use disorders. Participating states receive a federal matching rate of at least 90% for these services and funding for planning and administration. Introduced by Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA), the bill is currently under review by the Senate Committee on Finance.
