Data on Alcohol and Drug Health Consequences

Data on the health consequences of alcohol and other drugs (AOD) in people treated in hospitals or in emergency departments (EDs). Only drugs with potential for abuse and dependence are included (e.g., anti-depressant drugs are excluded). Health consequences include poisoning ("overdose"), mental disorder, and physical disease, but not indirect consequences such as injuries due to drug or alcohol impairment.

Rates and counts are based on the number of treatments at hospitals and EDs, not the number of people treated. Individuals can receive treatment more than once in the same year. Thus the number of treatments is more than the number of persons treated. For more information, go to Help.

AOD consequences can be displayed in two ways. Principal diagnosis includes only cases where the diagnosis was the main or most serious condition. Any mention of AOD includes all cases with diagnosed alcohol and drug effects, whether diagnosed as principal or secondary.

The data and methods used in this query system were developed in collaboration with the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs, Office of Applied Research and Analysis.
