This survey study used a nationally representative cross-sectional survey querying 1,028 jails from June 2022 to April 2023 on their provision of substance use disorder treatment services. The survey was conducted via mail, phone, and the internet. County-level data were linked to survey data, and binary logistic regressions were conducted to assess the probability that a jail offered any treatment and MOUD. A stratified random sample of 2,791 jails identified by federal lists of all jails in the U.S. was invited to participate. Staff members knowledgeable about substance use disorder services available in the jail completed the survey.
