11. “… The reality is that most people — less than 11 percent — who need
treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol problem receive it.
Not only are more than 23 million Americans addicted to alcohol and drugs, but
because so many of these people go undiagnosed and untreated, the estimated annual
combined health care cost and lost productivity is some $365 billion.”
Addendum:
Blog: September 1, 2015
“According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the disease costs $700 billion
annually in treatment costs, crime and lost productivity.”
