Notes: N = 160,557. Number of individuals receiving behavioral health counseling is 133,464 (83.1 %). MOUD = medication treatment for opioid use disorder. OUD = opioid use disorder. OR = odds ratio. PTSD = post-traumatic stress disorder. HCV = hepatitis C virus.

Other injection-related complications include intracranial and intraspinal abscess, osteomyelitis, and endocarditis; which were combined due to small cell sizes.

b

Length of follow-up is defined as the number of months between the first OUD diagnosis and the end of the follow up period (either end of the measurement period or one year after the first diagnosis of OUD).
