Indiana, a state home to 6,785,528 people, is affected greatly by substance abuse.1 Nearly 1 in 12 Indiana residents are considered to meet the criteria of having a substance use disorder (SUD).2 In 2018, 1,104 drug overdose deaths alone involved opioids.3 Drug overdoses in Indiana have almost doubled in the past decade, reaching 1,809 in 2017—and more Hoosiers die due to drug overdoses than car crashes.2
If you or a loved one is suffering from addiction, you are not alone. One of the first steps in recovery is seeking treatment. Unfortunately, many do not get the care they need for many reasons, including the fear that getting care is too expensive. That’s where health insurance can help. Most health plans will cover some or all of the cost associated with rehab and detox centers.
