Overdose picture
Florida Medical Examiners / FDLE dashboard figures show Duval County fentanyl-related deaths fell 43% from 454 in 2023 to 261 in 2024; Jacksonville Sheriff's Office-investigated overdose deaths were 317 in 2024 (down from 472 in 2022). Fentanyl and other opioids remain major drivers in local toxicology alongside stimulants in many metros. Keep naloxone at home and know how to use it.
Paying for MOUD in Jacksonville
Florida Medicaid (AHCA) can cover MOUD when medically necessary through participating providers, if you meet eligibility rules. The state has not expanded Medicaid under the ACA, so many adults without children do not qualify.
