But alcoholism’s【B2】______remains very high: Some 18 million Americans abuse alcohol, and more than 100,000 die prematurely each year from【B3】______causes. And alcoholism costs the nation $86 billion a year.

When their alcoholism goes【B5】______. it costs a bundle. Problem drinkers don’t pull their weight in the office, are often【B6】______late or absent, and file $4,600 more in health claims a year than other employees.

In the eighties, many corporations developed generous programs to help alcoholic employees recover, often with gratifying results. But now the progress against Corporate America’s biggest drug problem is being threatened. Although few companies are【B8】______alcohol treatment benefits entirely, many are hiring outside vendors to manage care. In many cases, alcoholics are denied the treatment they need because it’s too expensive.

选项
答案
alcohol-related
