SBIRT NC Introduction by Ashwin A. Patkar, MD

SBIRT or screening, brief intervention and referral to treatment has been shown to reduce alcohol abuse, increase treatment contact, be cost effective, and be as effective as more intensive treatments in reducing at-risk drinking and the associated harm.

SBIRTNC.org is a collaborative project of many organizations in the state that are working to promote evidence based care. Thank you for visiting our website and joining us in these efforts!
