Yes. SSPs reduce health care costs, as they are helpful in preventing the spread of HIV, viral hepatitis, and other infections, including endocarditis. This is a life-threatening heart valve infection, which can be common for people who use drugs intravenously. The estimated lifetime cost of treating one person living with HIV is more than $450,000 and hospitalizations of substance-use-related infections in the U.S. cost over $700 million each year. SSPs reduce these costs and help people get connected to treatment to stop using drugs, if that is what they want.
