FAIR Health has launched their Opioid Tracker, an interactive tool that monitors opioid abuse and dependence across the U.S., based on their database of 48 billion commercial healthcare claim records.

Designed to provide transparency into various aspects of opioid abuse and dependence – including utilization, costs, age and gender – the Tracker provides state-by-state data for 2023, showing the percent of patients diagnosed with opioid abuse or dependence, compared to all patients receiving medical services.

The tool includes infographics displaying:

• The top five procedure codes by utilization for opioid abuse and dependence
• The top five procedure codes by aggregate allowed amounts
• Changes in the percentage of patients with opioid abuse and dependence diagnoses from 2020 to 2023
• The distribution of patients with these diagnoses by age and gender.
