In 2015, 20.8 million people aged 12 years or older (7.8 percent of
the United States population) had a substance use disorder (SUD) in
the previous year. Approximately 75 percent of this group, or 15.7
million Americans, had an alcohol use disorder, 2.0 million had a
prescription opioid use disorder (OUD), and about 0.6 million had a
heroin use disorder. Even though evidence-based SUD treatments are
effective, rates of treatment receipt are quite low. Only about 48
percent of patients who enter SUD treatment actually complete it.
One measure of treatment receipt is the Initiation and Engagement
of Alcohol and Other Drug Dependence Treatment (IET) performance
measure, which is commonly reported by health plans and used by
health systems and Medicaid and Medicare programs .Chapter 1
examines how these factors affect health plan performance on the
IET measures for both commercial and Medicaid health plans and how
initiation and engagement may be improved. According to the Centers
for Disease Control, more than 115 people in the U.S. die after
overdosing on opioids every day. In 2017, more than 72,000
Americans died from drug overdoses, overall. It is clear that we
need safe and effective recovery options to combat this epidemic to
ensure that people have the opportunity to get the help they need.
One popular option is known as a sober living home as discussed in
chapter 2.
