Momentum continues!

SB 137 passed unanimously out of the House Health Committee today. Senator and physician Terry Johnson introduced Senate Bill 137 to require hospitals to provide overdose reversal drugs like naloxone. This initiative was championed by The Naloxone Project and supported by Ohio ACEP.

Ohio ACEP Past Presidents, Dr. Michael McCrea, and Dr. Ryan Squier, previously testified in support of the bill. The bill was unanimously passed by the Ohio Senate earlier in this General Assembly.

🚨 Call for Speakers: 2026 Ohio EM Residents’ Assembly 🚨

Planning is officially underway, and we want you to be part of it! The 2026 Ohio Emergency Medicine Residents’ Assembly will once again take place alongside the Midwest Medical Student Symposium.

The Event Planning Task Force is now accepting proposals for 15–20 minute presentations on Clinical topics and Life After Residency topics—think interviewing, choosing the right practice setting, risk management, AI, financial planning, wellness, and more.

This annual event brings together EM residents from across Ohio to learn, network, meet physician recruiters, and explore career opportunities. Last year, we welcomed 450+ attendees representing nearly every Ohio EM residency program.

Have an idea that would benefit EM residents? We’d love to hear it!

Ohio ACEP

Mission

The Ohio Chapter, American College of Emergency Physicians is dedicated to advancing excellence in emergency care and advocating for emergency physicians, their patients and the health of the community.

Ohio Chapter ACEP started as a small group of doctors who envisioned an organization that would help them ensure the best possible emergency care for their patients. Since then, emergency medicine has become recognized as a vital and respected part of our health-care system, and Ohio ACEP has consistently been at the forefront of fighting for that recognition.

Ohio ACEP is now active in legislative and judicial matters, and its influence allows the organization to hold the line against bad policy that would weaken emergency care in Ohio. The Chapter’s perspective is sought by candidates and elected officials alike, and many of its members are state and national leaders in their field. Physicians from around the world attend Ohio ACEP’s acclaimed educational offerings.
