BACKGROUND: Drug overdose is a persistent public health problem for Washington State residents, and it is imperative for public health partners to know how this public health problem is impacting their communities. The Rapid Health Information Network (RHINO) program is responsible for syndromic surveillance data collection, analysis, and distribution at the department.

Key data elements reported include patient demographic information, chief complaint, and coded diagnoses. Use of this system allows the Health Department access to data needed for programmatic work.
