2013 Treatment Episodes Data Set (TEDS) Annual Report

This is a Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS) annual report that presents national-level data from the Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS) for admissions in 2013 and trend data from 2003 to 2013. It provides information on the demographic and substance abuse characteristics of admissions aged 12 and older to treatment for abuse of alcohol and/or drugs in facilities that report to individual state administrative data systems. TEDS received treatment admission records from 49 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Pennsylvania had submitted no data for 2013 by January 23, 2015, and is excluded from this report.

This report uses data from the Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS) to examine treatment admission data in 2013, and trend data from 2003 to 2013, nationally, regionally (by the nine Census divisions), and by state or jurisdiction. The report provides information on the demographic and substance abuse characteristics of admissions to treatment aged 12 and older for abuse of alcohol and/or drugs in facilities that report to individual state administrative data systems.

This report presents data from the Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS) for discharges from treatment in 2013. It is a companion to the reports Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS): 2003-2013 National Admissions to Substance Abuse Treatment and Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS): 2003-2013 State Admissions to Substance Abuse Treatment. These reports provide information on the demographic and substance abuse characteristics of substance abuse treatment admissions and discharges aged 12 and older in facilities that report to individual state administrative data systems. In addition, characteristics used to analyze changes from admission to discharge among the linked admission and discharge records are included. Primary substance of abuse, frequency of use, and employment status at admission are repeated in several tables. This is done so that characteristics at admission and discharge can be appropriately compared with each other and to ensure the inclusion of important data that might otherwise be overlooked. Data in this report include records for discharges during calendar year 2013 that were received and processed through February 1, 2016.
