Description
Shawn M Cohen and co-authors published a research paper in 2024 on how many psychiatric hospitals in the United States offer the standard medicines for opioid addiction. Those medicines are the best treatment for the disorder, yet they stay underused even during an overdose crisis. Mental illness and addiction often arrive together, so mental hospitals are a key place to offer them.
The team used a national survey of treatment sites from 2022, in which nearly nine in ten sites replied. Each hospital reported whether it provides any of the three approved medicines. The study compared offerings across hospital traits to spot gaps. The map shows where a stay for mental care also opens a door to addiction care.
