County health indicators we cross-reference

Overdose deaths per 100k

County-year per-100k rate, with fentanyl, heroin, meth, and alcohol involvement split. Used as a primary outcome on the correlations matrix.

Per-county per-100k rate; cross-referenced with the post-release week 1–4 window for IDOC and county-jail releases.

MOUD access — clinics + providers

Number of buprenorphine prescribers and methadone clinics in-county. Used to flag treatment deserts in the rural focus set.
