Dialogue session - Branches of the same tree: Using linked administrative health data to reduce illicit drug poisoning and improve the health of people released from incarceration

In response to this major challenge have been efforts to promote evidence-based decision making through use of linked administrative health data in BC and globally. In BC, these efforts have included the establishment of the Peer (Persons with Lived Experience) Advisory Group at the BC Centre for Disease Control that co-leads analyses using the BC Provincial Overdose Cohort.
