The Treatment Gap
• SHA stated objective was ‘Industrialising’ Alcohol Screening in Primary Care.
• An ad hoc approach in the context of a routine consultation is more cottage industry.
Radically Obvious Principles of Intelligent Alcohol CommissioningIf we know alcohol abuse is
associated with so much morbidity then commissioning just for ‘less drinking’ is:
silo thinkingblinkered vision‘hit & hope’
‘We’ll hit the problem … and keep our
fingers crossed that all those associated
conditions get better…’
Really Intelligent Commissioning in Alcohol Services
Integrated Care /Service delivery interface
Addressing 100% and < 100% and even non-causal physical morbidity
Dual Diagnosis District-Wide Register
Alcohol is the most commonly misused drug in patients with SMI
SAFEGUARDING – Adult & ChildDon’t just commission for fewer units!
Where is the patient in all of this?
