Exemption JJW1021 is for Sublocade, a medication used to treat opioid dependency. It's always difficult to predict how well a newer treatment like this takes off. There are many variables in play, especially when dealing with Opioid Dependency treatment. In this case, our providers have done quite well in treating many patients with Sublocade. Other similar treatments have not done as well, so it's was difficult to estimate.
The University award process may be delayed up to thirty days as this award goes through a state approval process.
