  • Description:
    In 2022, 84.2 million adults and 6.1 million adolescents were diagnosed with a mental health disorder (MHD) or substance use disorder (SUD) (1). Health centers are community-based clinics that offer primary care to underserved communities. In 2022, health centers offered MHD services to 2.7 million patients and SUD services to about 299,000 patients (2). This report presents rates for MHDs, SUDs, and both MHDs and SUDs by age group for visits to health centers by people age 12 and older, based on the 2022 National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey Health Center Component.

    In 2022, the health center visit rate for people age 12 and older with an MHD only was 50.5 visits per 1,000 people. This was higher than rates for people with an SUD only (10.3 visits) and both an MHD and SUD (12.8) Figure. Similar patterns were observed across all age groups, with rates for MHD only higher than rates for SUD only and both MHD and SUD. Rates for adolescents ages 12–17 with an SUD only (0.6) and with both an MHD and SUD (1.1) were the lowest. Rates for adults ages 26–49 (13.3) and 50 and older (11.9) with an SUD only were higher than rates for young adults ages 18–25 (3.2). Similarly, rates for adults ages 26–49 (19.0) and 50 and older (12.0) with both an MHD and SUD were higher than rates for young adults ages 18–25 (6.2). Rates for MHD only were not significantly different across age groups.
