McKinsey to pay $573 million to settle claims over opioid crisis role:
Consulting firm McKinsey & Co
has agreed to pay at least $573 million to resolve claims by 40-plus U.S. states related to its role in the opioid epidemic and advice it gave to OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The settlement is with 43 states, the District of Columbia and three territories, the person said on Wednesday.
Several attorneys general said they planned announcements on the opioid epidemic on Thursday.
They included Vermont’s attorney general, T.J. Donovan, whose office said it would announce its participation in the first multi-state opioid settlement to result in substantial payment to the states to address the epidemic.
McKinsey did not respond to requests for comment.
McKinsey previously
came under scrutiny for its role advising Purdue Pharma and the wealth Sackler family that owns the drugmaker.
A lawsuit by Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey
alleged McKinsey advised the Sacklers on how to “turbocharge” opioid sales.
More than 3,200 lawsuits
are pending, seeking to hold drug makers, distributors and pharmacies responsible for an opioid addiction epidemic that according to U.S. government data resulted in 450,000 overdose deaths from 1999 to 2018.
