Pain doctor shows legislative impact on opioid epidemic, then has reputation questioned

Timothy Deer CHARLESTON – Tables turned as an expert witness for Cardinal Health had his professional reputation challenged during his testimony at the bellwether federal opioid trial.  Enu Mainigi, representing Cardinal Health, called local physician Timothy Deer as an expert in pain management and the standard of care for pain management.  Deer testified that he was asked to look at the standard care in West Virginia between 1994 and 2021, the change of opioid prescribing and “what really happened” in West Virginia.  Mainigi Huntington and Cabell County sued the three large distribution companies – AmerisourceBergen, Cardinal Health and McKesson – in 2017, seeking the parties be held responsible for their part in the opioid epidemic. Five of 77 pharmacies in Cabell County and Huntington, received over 23.2 million pills between 2006 and 2014 according to DEA data.
