1. 
Background 
 
1.1. 
In 2017, Arizona declared a state of emergency due to the opioid overdose epidemic, authorizing the 
Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) to coordinate the public health response to complete 
the requirements of the executive order. Following the state of emergency declaration, in 2018 
Governor Ducey signed landmark Senate Bill, 1001- Arizona Opioid Epidemic Act, into law focusing on 
reducing overdoses and improving patient safety. 
 
1.2. 
In 2021, 2,688 overdose deaths occurred in Arizona, which was a twelve percent (12%) increase over 
2020 (n=2,405). This recent increase in overdose deaths can be attributed mostly to illicit fentanyl, 
which has spread throughout Arizona’s drug supply. Among Arizona opioid overdose deaths, sixty-four 
percent (64%) involved prescription or synthetic opioids in 2017; whereas 97.8% involved prescription 
of synthetic opioids in 2023. A majority of overdoses are preventable, and many lives could be saved 
with prevention education and actions. 
 
1.3. 
Medical examiners play a critical role in preventing future overdose deaths by conducting death 
examinations to determine the cause and manner of death and to document and preserve evidence. In 
Arizona, medical examiners are required to report suspected opioid deaths to ADHS per the Arizona 
Administrative Code (9 A.A.C.4 Article 6. Opioid Poisoning-Related Reporting). 
 
1.4. 
ADHS and Maricopa County (hereafter County) hereby enter into this Intergovernmental Agreement 
(IGA) to work on a project to support enhanced toxicological testing of opioid and stimulant overdose 
deaths.

medical examiner case management systems). 
 
2.3. 
Support general medical examiner staffing needs (i.e., administrative or laboratory staff, medicolegal 
death investigators, medical examiners).
