Return to Decrease Health Costs & Employment Problems due to Opioid Misuse

Possible Measures

Health Costs:

  • Prescription opioid overdose, abuse, and dependence carries high costs for American society, with an estimated total economic burden of $78.5 billion.[1]
    • Total spending for health care and substance abuse was over $28 billion, and $26 billion of this was covered by insurance.[2]
  • Reduced productive hours and lost production for incarcerated individuals estimated to be $20 billion. [3]

Employment Problems:

  • People who were unemployed reported the highest odds of misusing prescription opioids at 7%.[4]
  • Those out of the workforce reported the highest odds of misusing prescription stimulants at 2%. [5]
  • Using prescription opioids for recreational purposes alone costs the U.S. about $42 billion in lost productivity, $8.2 billion in criminal justice costs, and $1 billion in medical complications.[6]


As you add potential measures, please include a description, calculations for the measure and possible data sources.
