Reducing Alcohol Harm: health services in England for alcohol misuse (29th October 2008)
This report evaluates work by the Department of Health and the National Health Service to address the health effects of alcohol misuse. Alcohol-related ill-health is an increasing burden for the National Health Service. Alcohol misuse costs the health service in the order of £2.7 billion a year, but efforts to address it locally are not in general well-planned, the National Audit Office reported today. The Department of Health is however raising the profile of alcohol misuse by providing information and guidance to underpin local action, centred on encouraging PCTs to gauge their performance against the rate of alcohol-related hospital admissions.
