The AUDIT Alcohol Screening Form implements the World Health Organization's Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, a validated 10-item screening instrument developed to identify patients with hazardous or harmful alcohol consumption patterns. Each question uses a standardized response scale that assesses drinking frequency, typical quantity, binge episodes, impaired control, morning drinking, guilt, blackouts, alcohol-related injuries, and external concern about the patient's drinking habits.

The form includes automated scoring zones that categorize patients into risk tiers: low risk, hazardous use, harmful use, and possible dependence. Each zone is linked to recommended clinical interventions ranging from alcohol education for low-risk scores to brief intervention for hazardous use and referral for specialist evaluation at higher risk levels. This tiered approach supports the SBIRT (Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment) framework widely adopted in healthcare.

Suitable for primary care practices, emergency departments, behavioral health clinics, occupational health programs, and any clinical setting conducting routine substance use screening. The AUDIT is one of the most widely researched alcohol screening tools globally and is recommended by SAMHSA, USPSTF, and numerous medical specialty organizations for integration into standard clinical workflows.
