Alcoholism Treatment |
This is one in a series of brief
state-based reports intended to give the reader
a quick overview of substance abuse and mental health
issues within a single state. The data derive principally
from national surveys conducted by the Office of
Applied Studies, a component of the Substance Abuse
and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
Sources for all data used in this report appear
at the end.
Prevalence of Illicit Substance and Alcohol Use
in Illinois
The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH)
generates state-level estimates for 23 measures
of substance use and mental health problems for
four age groups: the entire state population over
the age of 12 (12+); individuals age 12 to 17; individuals
age 18 to 25; and individuals age 26 and older (26+).
Since state estimates of substance use and abuse
were first generated using the combined 2002-2003
NSDUHs and continuing until the most recent state
estimates based on the combined 2005-2006 surveys,
Illinois’ rates of many drug use measures
have consistently been at or below the national
rates for all age groups. These include:
past month illicit drug use, past month and past
year marijuana use; past month use of an illicit
drug other than marijuana; and past year nonmedical
use of pain relievers. Illinois’ rates
of alcohol use, however, have generally been at
or above the national rates for all age groups and
across all survey years.
Substance Abuse and Dependence
in Illinois
Questions in NSDUH are used to classify persons
as being dependent on or abusing specific substances
based on criteria specified in the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition
(DSM-IV) (American Psychiatric Association, 1994).
Rates of past year alcohol dependence in
Illinois have typically been above the
national rate for all age groups and across all
survey years.
Conversely, rates of past year for Illinois
drug dependence have typically been at
or below the national rates for all age groups and
across all survey years.
Substance Abuse Treatment Facilities
in Illinois
According to the 2006 National Survey of Substance
Abuse Treatment Services (N-SSATS), the
majority of facilities in 2006 (338 or 58%) were
private nonprofit. Another 221 facilities (37%)
were private for-profit, and the remainder were
owned or operated by Federal, State, or local government.
Since 2002, the number of addiction treatment
facilities in Illinois has decreased from
608 in 2002, to 588 in 2006.
Although addiction facilities may
offer more than one modality of care, in 2006 the
majority of facilities (526 or 89%) offered some
form of outpatient addiction treatment.
Additionally, 107 facilities (18%) offered some
form of residential addiction treatment
care. In addition, 63 addiction
treatment facilities offered an opioid
treatment program, and 221 physicians and 64 programs
were certified to provide buprenorphine treatment
for opiate addiction.

Addiction Treatment in Illinois
State treatment data for substance use disorders
are derived from two primary sources - an annual
1-day census in N-SSATS and annual treatment admissions
from the Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS). The
2006 N-SSATS survey showed a one-day total of 43,724
clients in addiction treatment, the majority of
whom (39,900 or 91%) were in outpatient
addiction treatment. Of the total number
of clients in addiction treatment on this date,
4,404 (10%) were under the age of 18.
Across the last 15 years, there has been a steady
decline in the number of admissions mentioning
alcohol addiction (80% vs. 57%) and an
increase in the percent of admissions mentioning
heroin addiction (11% vs. 19%).
Across the years for which TEDS data are available,
Illinois has seen a substantial shift in the constellation
of problems present at addiction treatment
admission. Alcohol-only admissions have
declined from 34 percent of all admissions in 1992,
to 17 percent in 2006. Concomitantly, drug-only
admissions have increased from 18 percent in 1992,
to 43 percent in 2006.
Unmet Need for Addiction Treatment
in Illinois
NSDUH defines unmet addiction treatment
need as an individual who meets the criteria
for abuse of or dependence on illicit drugs
or alcohol according to the DSM-IV, but
who has not received specialty addiction treatment
for that problem in the past year.
Rates of unmet need for drug addiction treatment
in Illinois have generally been at or below
the national rates for all age groups and across
all survey years.
Rates of unmet need for alcohol addiction
treatment, on the other hand, have generally
been at or above the national rates for all age
groups and across all survey years.
