Cost of an epidemic...
A
new study calculates the total cost of opioid dependency in Ohio in
2015 ranged from $6.6 billion to $8.8 billion. To put this into
perspective, Ohio spent $8.2 billion of General Revenue Funds and
Lottery Profits money on K-12 public education in 2015, thus, the opioid
crisis was likely as costly as the state’s spending on K-12 education.
