Fringe rate for SSPs was calculated using annual naloxone distribution budgets provided by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. We used the median fringe rate across all SSPs. Fringe rate for Non-SSPs was from the national civilian fringe rate from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Part time employees at SSPs were paid through stipends and the majority did not receive fringe benefits. We did not assign fringe benefits to part time employees at Non-SSPs.
