Miyares Secures Over $10 Billion in Opioid Funds from CVS and Walgreens

Attorney General Jason Miyares announced that Virginia will receive payments from the recently-settle litigation with CVS and Walgreens for its role in the opioid crisis. The 2 chains are required to monitor, report, and share data about suspicious activity related to opioid prescriptions. The payments are structured to ensure critical support in early years as well as sustained resources over time. CVS’s payments will be spread over 10 years and Walgreens’ payments will be spread over 15 years.
