^*Non-recipients received an alcohol use disorder diagnosis in primary care in the year preceding the pilot (3/1/16–2/28/17), visited primary care during the pilot (3/1/17–2/28/18), and did not receive a video consult.

^**Alcohol screening responses are patient self-report, based on NIAAA healthy drinking limits, for the 90 days prior to screening. Responses shown are for the most recent screening during the 2 years prior to index primary care visit.
