Dear John,
As a reminder, we launched our open-access journal Health Affairs
Scholar <[link removed]> earlier this
summer.
State Funding For Substance Use Treatment
****
In their article in the July issue of Health Affairs
<[link removed]>,
Christina Andrews and her team of coauthors examine trends in state
funding for substance use disorder (SUD) treatment among Medicaid
expansion and nonexpansion states between 2010-19.
They find that overall, average state allocation to substance use
treatment disorder treatment and prevention was $48 million across all
years and states, but that higher-than-average spending was concentrated
in the Northeast US, while lower-than-average spending was concentrated
in the Southeast.
Andrews and coauthors find that "inflation-adjusted state spending per
capita declined during the period 2010-19, driven by reductions in
spending among states that expanded Medicaid under the Affordable
Care's optional eligibility expansion that states began to implement
in 2014."
Additionally, the team of researchers found that expansion states under
Republican control experienced larger spending reductions.
Ultimately, these findings suggest that expansion states cut spending
for SUD treatment, shifting this financial burden to the federal level.
