Service Utilization for Mental Health Problems Among Adults
The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) is an annual
survey
sponsored by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services
Administration
(SAMHSA). Prior to 2002, this survey was called the National
Household Survey
on Drug Abuse (NHSDA). The 2003, 2004, and 2005 data are based on
information
obtained from 135,926 persons aged 18 or older. The survey collects
mental health and substance abuse service utilization data by
administering questionnaires to a representative sample of the
population through
face-to-face interviews at their place of residence.
