Birth Cohort: Individuals born between 1945 and 1965, as defined by the CDC.
Hazardous alcohol consumption defined as reported use of ≥4 alcoholic drinks in 1 sitting or risky sex under the influence of alcohol in the preceding 30 days.
Linkage to care effort score: The linkage to care effort score is a summation of the weighted outreach efforts for each patient. A score for outreach effort was created by scaling encounters according to effort required. Phone calls, letters, and home visits were weighted as 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
Statistically significant at P<0.05 in the multivariable analysis
Ever-IDU, non-IDU and Linkage to care effort score were not included in the multivariable analysis
