"for each additional A.A. meeting attended, health care costs fell by almost 5%"

Wow. It's really quite stark to see it in such austere terms.

The cost nature of this is quite exceptional if you think about this.

Without even unpacking anything to any degree, it would seem that dragging oneself to a meeting, socializing with others in the same plight, re-affirming one's commitment to 'getting better' probably really goes a long way to changing behavior.
