This resolution formally recognizes neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) — a condition where newborns experience withdrawal symptoms after being exposed to substances like opioids before birth — and urges the Utah Department of Health and Human Services to improve how the state tracks and reports NAS cases. It directs the department to enhance data collection on NAS diagnoses, maternal and infant health outcomes, and substance use treatment programs, and requires the department to deliver a written report to the legislature by October 31, 2027, with five years of updated data, a summary of reporting standardization efforts, and recommendations for further action.
