This Indicator measures substance abuse related emergency department visits per 100,000 by race/ethnicity, from 2013 through the third quarter of 2015. Substance abuse related emergency department visits refers to cases that involved non-medical use of pharmaceuticals, illicit drugs, or alcohol in combination with other drugs.

Mortality is measured in years of lives lost (YLL). The YLL Method was developed from the Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study. This method compares the age for each death to the life expectancy for that person. This Indicator then takes the total number of YLL for each category and creates a rate of YLL per 100,000 people per year. Data is from 2014-2016.
