Resource Information

Description: Views are being sought on the methods used to estimate alcohol-related hospital admissions for England. The consultation is being carried out by North West Public Health Observatory, as lead Public Health Observatory for substance misuse, in partnership with the Health and Social Care Information Centre and the Department of Health.

The aim is to engage with the users about the methods used to construct the estimates to ensure that the figures remain relevant, easy to interpret and meaningful. The consultation has been driven by an improved understanding of the methodological issues associated with estimating alcohol-related admissions and, linked to that, the inclusion within the Public Health Outcomes Framework of an alcohol-related admissions indicator3 and the need to ensure this indicator is the best available for that purpose.
