| Business rules | The description above details which services are counted as substance use services. |
| Additional data recording considerations | This indicator was initially specified for standalone substance use services only but has since been extended to mainstream health services who receive funding for substance use support. As such it is not yet clearly defined but the above conditions are fairly comprehensive although they may over-report activity of this type. |
