Abstract One of the key issues justice-involved individuals face is problematic substance use. In this paper, we explore whether health insurance coverage is associated with reductions in substance use issues among the justice-involved population. Using nationally representative data from the National Survey of Drug Use and Health and multivariate logistic regression models, our results suggest that health insurance is associated with reductions in heavy drinking and daily cigarette smoking among justice-involved individuals. These findings bolster support for the view that that policymakers should strive to increase access to health insurance coverage for justice-involved individuals.

健康保险对涉及司法的个人中有问题的物质使用的影响

摘要涉及正义的个人面临的关键问题之一是有问题的物质使用。在本文中，我们探讨了健康保险的覆盖范围是否与参与司法正义的人群中减少毒品使用问题相关。使用全国药物使用和健康调查的全国代表性数据和多元逻辑回归模型，我们的结果表明，在涉及司法的个人中，健康保险与减少大量饮酒和每天吸烟有关。这些发现为以下观点提供了支持：政策制定者应努力增加涉及司法人员的健康保险覆盖率。
