“…The objective was to estimate the distribution of alcohol-attributable healthcare encounters (emergency department (ED) visits and hospitalizations) across the population of alcohol users aged 15+ in Ontario, Canada. Using the International Model of Alcohol Harms and Policies (InterMAHP) tool, wholly and partially alcohol-attributable healthcare encounters were estimated across alcohol users: (1) former (no past-year use); (2) low volume (≤67.3 g ethanol/week); (3) medium volume (>67.3–134.5 g ethanol/week for women and >67.3–201.8 g ethanol/week for men); and (4) high volume (>134.5 g ethanol/week for women and >201.8 g ethanol/week for men). …”

“…The impact of four effective population-based interventions, focusing on individual behavioural change and aimed at reducing tobacco-attributable morbidity, was assessed by modeling with respect to effects on reducing prevalence rates of cigarette smoking, population-attributable fractions, reductions of disease-specific morbidity and its cost for Canada. Results revealed that an implementation of a combination of four tobacco policy interventions would result in a savings of 33,307 acute care hospital days, which translates to a cost savings of about $37 million per year in Canada. …”
