In 2022, the United States reported 81,806 opiod overdose deaths, which is the highest ever recorded. Data showed that 3.7% of U.S. adults needed opiod use disorder (OUD) treatment, but only 25.1% received medications. Many did not perceive the need for treatment or received treatment without medication. The study showed non-Hispanic white adults were more likely to receive OUD treatment than non-Hispanic black or Hispanic adults.
