Among those with 12-month AUD, 4.5% received help from 12-step groups; 3.6%, from health care practitioners; and 2.0% and 1.8%, from outpatient facilities and rehabilitation programs, respectively. Treatment from other sources was less frequent (eTables 3 and 4 in the Supplement). Respondents with lifetime AUD showed similar treatment modality rankings, although a higher percentage sought treatment through rehabilitation programs (9.0%) than from health care practitioners (8.7%). Treatment rankings across severity levels were similar to those for overall AUD. In general, treatment seeking increased from mild to moderate to severe AUD among respondents with 12-month (2.7% to 4.9% to 21.3%, respectively) and lifetime (4.4% to 8.7% to 34.7%, respectively) AUD.
