Home > July News Roundup: A New Approach to Managing the Opioid Crisis and FQHC Hospice Reimbursement Reviewed
Massachusetts is seeing a new approach to combating the opioid crisis thanks to a project in partnership with Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program.

The van, donated by Ford Motors, costs $160,000 to outfit and organizers hope to expand the program later this year.
