SMDB supplies data to three registers: - VBGS: "Waiting times regarding treatment guarantee for drug addicts", which is owned by the Ministry of Social Affairs, Housing and the Senior Citizens. The VBGS register includes an municipality part (Waiting times regarding treatment guarantee for drug addicts) and an treatment treatment center part (admissions). Before 1 July 2019, the treatment center part was an independent register called the Danish Registration and Information System (DanRis) at the Center for Alcohol and Drug Research. The municipality part of the VBGS register builds the data foundation for these statistics.
