The state's drug overdose death rate of 40.5 per 100,000 is above the national average of 33.1 — ranking #13 nationally.

Insurance & Medicaid Coverage in North Carolina
North Carolina has expanded Medicaid under the ACA, significantly broadening access to addiction treatment for low-income adults earning up to 138% of the federal poverty level (~$20,783/year for an individual). Covered services typically include medical detox, inpatient/residential rehab, outpatient counseling, and medication-assisted treatment (MAT). In addition to Medicaid, most private insurance plans — including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, and Humana — are required by the Mental Health Parity Act to cover substance use disorder treatment at parity with medical care.
The Overdose Crisis in North Carolina
North Carolina reports 3,867 opioid-related deaths annually with an overdose rate of 40.5/100k (above the 33.1 national average by 22%). Substance use disorder affects approximately 7.1% of adults in the state (national average: 7.2%). North Carolina has enacted a Good Samaritan law that protects individuals who call 911 during an overdose emergency from certain criminal charges — encouraging bystanders to seek help. Naloxone (Narcan), the opioid overdose reversal medication, is available via standing order in North Carolina, making it accessible without an individual prescription.
