Results presented from multivariable logistic regression with state-level random effects modeling opioid agonist treatment provision given criminal justice referral to treatment and state-level criminal justice involvement in opioid treatment, controlling for gender, race/ethnicity, age, education status, employment status, state Medicaid coverage of methadone treatment, and presence of state civil commitment law.
High compared to low state-level criminal justice involvement in opioid treatment, where high criminal justice involvement states are defined as states where the proportion of opioid treatment admissions resulting from criminal justice referral is higher than the median.
