Economic Costs of Excessive Alcohol Consumption in the U.S., 2006
Open accessAbstract
The estimated economic cost of excessive drinking was $223.5 billion in 2006 (72.2% from lost productivity, 11.0% from healthcare costs, 9.4% from criminal justice costs, and 7.5% from other effects) or approximately $1.90 per alcoholic drink. Binge drinking resulted in costs of $170.7 billion (76.4% of the total); underage drinking $24.6 billion; and drinking during pregnancy $5.2 billion. The cost of alcohol-attributable crime was $73.3 billion. The cost to government was $94.2 billion (42.1% of the total cost).

“A meta-analysis assessing alcohol involvement among people treated in emergency departments 8 provided AAFs for nonfatal violent injuries (0.267) and unintentional injuries other than those related to traffıc crashes (0.058).”

The Results (Table 3; page unavailable) give 0.058 as the pooled attributable fraction for all-cause injuries, not specifically for nonfatal unintentional injuries excluding traffic crashes. The same table supports the citing sentence’s 0.267 figure for violence-related injuries. The paper uses meta-analytic techniques, but it does not report the claimed injury-specific fraction.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-11, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-11 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
