Abstract:
Between 2000 and 2007, the unintentional overdose death rate in North Carolina more than doubled. Many of the deaths were caused by opioid analgesic use and methadone. To gain a better understanding of unintentional overdoses, this study examined medical and prescription drug paid claims among the North Carolina Medicaid population.
