The Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID) has published an update to Alcohol Profiles.

The Alcohol Profiles interactive tool presents a range of alcohol-related indicators and allows users to view and analyse data in a user-friendly format.

This release includes new data for the following indicators:

  • alcohol-specific mortality
  • alcohol-related mortality
  • mortality from chronic liver disease
  • potential years of life lost (PYLL) due to alcohol-related conditions
  • casualties in road traffic accidents where a failed breath test (or refusal to provide a sample) occurred

The following new indicator has been added to the profile and is available at local authority level as well as for England, the regions, and various inequality groups:

  • estimated cost per capita of alcohol-related hospital admissions (broad)
