What the SAMHSA Record Shows About Berkshire Medical Center

Berkshire Medical Center is a substance use treatment operated by Private non-profit organization in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 2 primary care modalities (residential, detox), which shapes both how treatment is delivered and how intake is scheduled. Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is reported as available, meaning FDA-approved medications such as methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone may be combined with counseling for opioid or alcohol use disorder. The full postal address on file is 725 North Street, Pittsfield, MA 01201.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 10 distinct service lines (12-step facilitation, Co-occurring disorder treatment, Detoxification, Hospital inpatient, Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), Mental health services, Motivational interviewing, Substance use treatment, Suicide prevention services, Trauma-informed care), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 6 clinical treatment approaches (12-step facilitation, Brief intervention, Motivational interviewing, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling, Trauma-related counseling). It serves 4 specific population groups (Adults, Men, Women, Young adults) with 7 languages of care (French, Korean, Other languages (excluding Spanish), Russian, Sign language services for the deaf and hard of hearing, Spanish, Vietnamese). Those figures give a rough signal of programmatic breadth, a higher number of approaches and populations usually indicates more structured clinical programming rather than a single-modality operation. Payment-wise, the record confirms Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, plus 6 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (Cash or self-payment, Federal military insurance (e.g., TRICARE), Medicaid, Medicare, Private health insurance, State-financed health insurance plan other than Medicaid).
