(Radio Iowa) – Iowa’s Attorney General has announced a settlement against Walmart after claims the company contributed to the opioid crisis. Attorney General Tom Miller says a coalition of attorneys general have reached a $3.1 billion settlement with Walmart after allegations the company failed to appropriately oversee the dispensing of opioids at its stores.

Iowa will receive nearly $20 million from the settlement that Miller says must be used to provide treatment and recovery services to people struggling with opioid use disorder. The settlement also includes court-ordered requirements for oversight to prevent fraudulent prescriptions and flag suspicious prescriptions.

This is one of several opioid settlements that have been reached — or are in negotiations.
