California’s Ongoing Addiction and Mental Health Crisis

Behavioral health challenges are widespread across the state:

Over 8% of Californians reported a substance use disorder in the past year.

1 in 5 adults in California experiences a mental illness annually, according to the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS).

Drug overdose deaths increased by more than 45% in California between 2019 and 2022, driven by opioids like fentanyl.

About 63% of Californians living with a mental health condition did not receive any treatment last year, largely due to barriers like insurance access and cost.

These numbers show the critical need for accessible, affordable, and comprehensive treatment — all of which Carelon insurance helps provide.
