    Outcomes are improved with increased screening to identify problems/abuse. Limiting days & hours of alcohol sales allows a limited time to buy/access alcohol thus decreasing consumption
    How enhances accessibility of care:
    Increased screening allows individuals to identify problems/abuse and seek help immediately
