Rehab News:Alcohol screening found to be as cost effective as childhood immunisation

A new US study has found that screening for problem drinking is as cost-effective as some of the most used preventive services like childhood immunisation, screening for colon cancer and hypertension and taking aspirin to prevent stroke or heart attack.

"Alcohol screening and counselling are among the most important preventive services in terms of health impact and cost savings," said Dr Leif Solberg, the study's lead investigator from HealthPartners Research Foundation.

"This service deserves special attention by clinicians and care delivery systems since current delivery levels are the lowest among comparatively ranked services."

The study found that, on average, alcohol abuse costs the user $15,000 in lifetime medical and other alcohol-attributable expenses, 90 per cent of which are preventable through behavior change.

However, it said only 8.7 per cent of problem drinkers report being screened and receiving assistance beyond simple quit advice.

HealthPartners said alcohol screening is among the top five most cost-effective preventive services, ahead of nearly 20 other services "evaluated by standardised measures".
