Factsheets

The State Unintentional Drug Overdose Reporting System (SUDORS) is funded through the Overdose Data to Action in States (OD2A-S) grant, provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Through this grant, Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services is able to partner with coroners and medical examiners throughout the state in order to gain more information regarding the circumstances surrounding accidental and undetermined intent drug overdose deaths. SUDORS currently covers over 75% of Missouri’s accidental/undetermined intent drug overdose deaths. This program is voluntary, and therefore Missouri does not have full coverage throughout the state.

If you are a coroner or medical examiner looking to participate SUDORS, contact MOSUDORS@health.mo.gov for more information. Reimbursement opportunities may be available.

SUDORS fact sheets are being created for each participating jurisdiction with sufficient circumstancial and toxicology information for drug overdose deaths that occurred within their geographic area.
