Interesting Facts and Statistics:

In 2008, among persons who received their most recent substance use treatment at a specialty facility in the past year, 49.5 percent reported using their "own savings or earnings" as a source of payment for their most recent specialty treatment, 36.1 percent reported using private health insurance, 24.7 percent reported using Medicaid, 22.3 percent reported using public assistance other than Medicaid, 17.5 percent reported using Medicare, and 16.5 percent reported using funds from family members. None of these estimates changed significantly between 2007 and 2008 and between 2002 and 2008. (Note that persons could report more than one source of payment.)

Young adults aged 18 to 22 enrolled full time in college were more likely than their peers not enrolled full time (i.e., part-time college students and persons not currently enrolled in college) to use alcohol in the past month, binge drink, and drink heavily. Among full-time college students in 2008, 61.0 percent were current drinkers, 40.5 percent binge drank, and 16.3 percent were heavy drinkers. Among those not enrolled full time in college, these rates were 54.2, 38.1, and 13.0 percent, respectively. Rates of current alcohol use and binge use for full-time college students decreased from 2007, when they were 63.7 and 43.6 percent, respectively.

In 2006, 38.9 percent of teens aged 12 to 17 with past year MDE received treatment for depression (saw or talked to a medical doctor or other professional or used prescription medication). Among teens with past year MDE, 23.9 percent saw or talked to a medical doctor or other professional only, 2.1 percent used prescription medication only, and 12.7 percent received treatment from both sources for depression in the past year.

In recent years, the U.S. drug "czar" Barry McCaffrey made the recommendation that would make Methadone more readily available to patients by allowing physicians to prescribe it like any other medication. This is common practice in Great Britain, Germany, Australia, and other countries.

Based on 2004-2006 combined data, among persons who needed but did not receive illegal drug or alcohol use treatment, made an effort to receive treatment, and felt a need for treatment, the four most often reported reasons for not receiving treatment were (a) no health insurance and could not afford cost (36.3 percent), (b) not ready to stop using (23.9 percent), (c) able to handle the problem without treatment (11.2 percent), and (d) no transportation/inconvenient (10.0 percent).

The percentage of teens reporting that it would be easy to obtain marijuana declined between 2002 and 2003, from 55.0 to 53.6 percent, and again between 2003 and 2004, to 52.2 percent. The percentage of teens reporting that LSD would be easy to obtain also decreased between 2002 and 2004, from 19.4 to 16.9 percent, as did the perceived availability of heroin (15.8 to 14.0 percent).
