Age-Adjusted Hospitalization Rate due to Substance Use

Zip Code: 93065
Measurement Period: 2020-2022
This indicator shows the age-adjusted hospitalization rate due to substance use disorders per 10,000 population aged 18 years and older. Substance-related disorders include the use, abuse, and dependence of opioids, cannabis, sedatives, hypnotics, anxiolytics, cocaine, other stimulants, hallucinogens, nicotine, inhalants, and other psychoactive substances. Cases of abuse of non-psychoactive substances, maternal care for (suspected) damage to fetus by drugs, and drug use complicating pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium are also included. Cases of alcohol-related disorders and poisoning due to intentional self-harm (if primary diagnosis) are excluded.

Why is this important?

Substance abuse is a major public health issue that has a strong impact on individuals, families, and communities. The use of illicit drugs, abuse of alcohol, and addiction to pharmaceuticals is linked to serious health conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and liver diseases, exacting over $600 billion annually in costs related to lost work productivity, healthcare, and crime. Substance abuse also contributes to a wide range of social, physical, mental, and public health problems such as teenage pregnancy, HIV/AIDs, STIs, domestic violence, child abuse, motor vehicle crashes, crime, homicide, and suicide. Because of these far-reaching consequences of substance abuse, treatment programs have been developed to counter addiction. In particular, a combination of behavioral therapy and treatment medications tailored to an individual's particular abusive pattern and other mental, emotional, or medical issues is suggested to help overcome addiction.
