• Abstract:
  Despite known associations between transportation and opioid use, current approaches typically involve separate analyses using discrete databases. This research examines the linkage potential of two rich population-based data systems, prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMP) and police-reported crash databases and identifies knowledge gaps amenable to data linkage studies.
