An online resource for locating mental health treatment facilities and programs supported by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). The Mental Health Treatment Locator section of the Behavioral Health Treatment Services Locator lists facilities providing mental health services to persons with mental illness. It includes:
Public mental health facilities that are funded by their State mental health agency (SMHA) or other State agency or department
Mental health treatment facilities administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Private for-profit and non-profit mental health facilities that are licensed by the State or accredited by a national accreditation organization.

NOTE: The Mental Health Treatment Locator does not include facilities whose primary or only focus is the provision of services to persons with Mental Retardation (MR), Developmental Disability (DD), and Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). Facilities that provide treatment exclusively to persons with mental illness who are incarcerated. Mental health professionals in private practice (individual) or in a small group practice not licensed or certified as a mental health clinic or (community) mental health center.

SAMHSA endeavors to keep the Locator current. All information in the Locator is updated annually based on facility responses to SAMHSA's National Mental Health Services Survey (N-MHSS). The most recent complete update includes data collected as of April 30, 2010 in the N-MHSS. New facilities are added monthly. Updates to facility names, addresses, telephone numbers and services are made weekly, if facilities inform SAMHSA of changes.

The Treatment Episode Data Set -- Discharges (TEDS-D) is a national census data system of annual discharges from substance abuse treatment facilities. TEDS-D provides annual data on the number and characteristics of persons discharged from public and private substance abuse treatment programs that receive public funding. Data collected both at admission and at discharge is included. The unit of analysis is a treatment discharge. TEDS-D consists of data reported to state substance abuse agencies by the treatment programs, which in turn report it to SAMHSA. A sister data system, called the Treatment Episode Data Set -- Admissions (TEDS-A), collects data on admissions to substance abuse treatment facilities. The first year of TEDS-A data is 1992, while the first year of TEDS-D is 2006. TEDS-D variables that are required to be reported are called the "Minimum Data Set (MDS)", while those that are optional are called the "Supplemental Data Set (SuDS)". Variables unique to TEDS-D, and not part of TEDS-A, are the length of stay, reason for leaving treatment, and service setting at time of discharge. TEDS-D also provides many of the same variables that exist in TEDS-A. This includes information on service setting, number of prior treatments, primary source of referral, sex, race, ethnicity, education, employment status, substance(s) abused, route of administration, frequency of use, age at first use, and whether methadone was prescribed in treatment. Supplemental variables include: diagnosis codes, presence of psychiatric problems, living arrangements, source of income, health insurance, expected source of payment, pregnancy and veteran status, marital status, detailed not in labor force codes, detailed criminal justice referral codes, days waiting to enter treatment, and the number of arrests in the 30 days prior to admissions (starting in 2008) . Substances abused include alcohol, cocaine and crack, marijuana and hashish, heroin, nonprescription methadone, other opiates and synthetics, PCP, other hallucinogens, methamphetamine, other amphetamines, other stimulants, benzodiazepines, other non-benzodiazepine tranquilizers, barbiturates, other non-barbiturate sedatives or hypnotics, inhalants, over-the-counter medications, and other substances. Created variables include total number of substances reported, intravenous drug use (IDU), and flags for any mention of specific substances.This study has 1 Data Set.

The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) series (formerly titled National Household Survey on Drug Abuse) primarily measures the prevalence and correlates of drug use in the United States. Detailed NSDUH 2008 documentation http://www.samhsa.gov/data/2k12/NSDUH2008MRB/Index.aspx is available from SAMHSA. The surveys are designed to provide quarterly, as well as annual, estimates. Information is provided on the use of illicit drugs, alcohol, and tobacco among members of United States households aged 12 and older. Questions included age at first use as well as lifetime, annual, and past-month usage for the following drug classes: marijuana, cocaine (and crack), hallucinogens, heroin, inhalants, alcohol, tobacco, and nonmedical use of prescription drugs, including pain relievers, tranquilizers, stimulants, and sedatives. The survey covered substance abuse treatment history and perceived need for treatment, and included questions from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) of Mental Disorders that allow diagnostic criteria to be applied. The survey included questions concerning treatment for both substance abuse and mental health related disorders. Respondents were also asked about personal and family income sources and amounts, health care access and coverage, illegal activities and arrest record, problems resulting from the use of drugs, and needle-sharing. Questions introduced in previous administrations were retained in the 2008 survey, including questions asked only of respondents aged 12 to 17. These "youth experiences" items covered a variety of topics, such as neighborhood environment, illegal activities, drug use by friends, social support, extracurricular activities, exposure to substance abuse prevention and education programs, and perceived adult attitudes toward drug use and activities such as school work. Several measures focused on prevention-related themes in this section. Also retained were questions on mental health and access to care, perceived risk of using drugs, perceived availability of drugs, driving and personal behavior, and cigar smoking. Questions on the tobacco brand used most often were introduced with the 1999 survey. For this 2008 survey, Adult mental health questions were added to measure symptoms of psychological distress in the worst period of distress that a person experienced in the past 30 days and suicidal ideation. A split-sample design also was included to administer separate sets of questions to assess impairment due to mental health problems. Background information includes sex, race, age, ethnicity, marital status, educational level, job status, veteran status, and current household composition. This study has 1 Data Set.

BackgroundOpioid use disorder (OUD) is a growing public health crisis, with opioids involved in an overwhelming majority of drug overdose deaths in the United States in recent years. While medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) effectively reduce overdose mortality, only a minority of patients are able to access MOUD; additionally, those with unstable housing receive MOUD at even lower rates.ObjectiveBecause MOUD access is a multifactorial issue, we leverage machine learning techniques to assess and rank the variables most important in predicting whether any individual receives MOUD. We also seek to explain why persons experiencing homelessness have lower MOUD access and identify potential targets for action.MethodsWe utilize a gradient boosted decision tree algorithm (specifically, XGBoost) to train our model on SAMHSA’s Treatment Episode Data Set-Admissions, using anonymized demographic and clinical information for over half a million opioid admissions to treatment facilities across the United States. We use Shapley values to quantify and interpret the predictive power and influencing direction of individual features (i.e., variables).ResultsOur model is effective in predicting access to MOUD with an accuracy of 85.97% and area under the ROC curve of 0.9411. Notably, roughly half of the model’s predictive power emerges from facility type (23.34%) and geographic location (18.71%); other influential factors include referral source (6.74%), history of prior treatment (4.41%), and frequency of opioid use (3.44%). We also find that unhoused patients go to facilities that overall have lower MOUD treatment rates; furthermore, relative to housed (i.e., independent living) patients at these facilities, unhoused patients receive MOUD at even lower rates. However, we hypothesize that if unhoused patients instead went to the facilities that housed patients enter at an equal percent (but still received MOUD at the lower unhoused rates), 89.50% of the disparity in MOUD access would be eliminated.ConclusionThis study demonstrates the utility of a model that predicts MOUD access and both ranks the influencing variables and compares their individual positive or negative contribution to access. Furthermore, we examine the lack of MOUD treatment among persons with unstable housing and consider approaches for improving access.
