Referral to AMU occurred in 56.7% of admissions, predominantly among those with AUD (93.8%), with a tendency to refer patients with higher weekly alcohol intake (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      =\u20090.024). The AMU recommended outpatient counselling services to assist with detoxification and rehabilitation in 40.4%, both pharmacological and outpatient interventions in 37.6% and medications alone in 21.9% of admissions. Over the 2\u2010year period, 54 (23.4%) patients were readmitted with AAP. The adjusted analysis did not demonstrate reduced readmission with AAP associated with AMU review.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>There is a substantial missed opportunity for specialist addiction medicine input in this cohort.
