Illinois care-setting mix

How Illinois's 745 listings split by care setting

Exclusive outpatient / residential partition for this listing's state peers. Orthogonal to the inventory≠MAT dual above and to this facility's own service list (service rows can overlap; these buckets cannot).

Sparse-record desk: Healthcare Alternative Systems Inc - Fullerton/LR

Signature: Telehealth flagged. Healthcare Alternative Systems Inc - Fullerton/LR is a sparse N-SUMHSS sheet (12 attrs; below 30). Treat missing MAT/Medicaid/modality rows as unreported, not proven absent; confirm by phone before travel.

What is present: outpatient, telehealth; a sliding-fee scale, payment assistance. What is thin: many SAMHSA fields blank on this vintage. Healthcare Alternative Systems Inc's SAMHSA record documents fewer attributes (12) than the typical Illinois facility (state median: 31, out of 745 listed statewide). That is common for smaller or newly-surveyed programs and does not mean fewer services are actually offered, it means fewer were self-reported to SAMHSA. Call the facility directly to confirm services not shown here.
