What the SAMHSA Record Shows About New Connections

New Connections is a substance use treatment operated by Local, county, or community government in Des Moines, Iowa. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 2 primary care modalities (outpatient, telehealth), which shapes both how treatment is delivered and how intake is scheduled. MAT is not listed in the current record; callers seeking medication-assisted options should verify directly or check the rankings pages for nearby providers that do offer MAT. The full postal address on file is 1801 Hickman Road, Des Moines, IA 50314.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 10 distinct service lines (Co-occurring disorder treatment, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Intensive outpatient, Mental health services, Motivational interviewing, Outpatient, Partial hospitalization / day treatment, Substance use treatment, Suicide prevention services, Telehealth), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 5 clinical treatment approaches (Cognitive behavioral therapy, Motivational interviewing, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling, Telemedicine/telehealth therapy). It serves 4 specific population groups (Adults, Persons who have experienced trauma, Persons with co-occurring disorders, Young adults) with 1 language of care (Sign language services for the deaf and hard of hearing). 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 5 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (Federal, or any government funding for substance use treatment programs, Medicaid, Medicare, Private health insurance, State-financed health insurance plan other than Medicaid).

New Connections reports 29 attributes across services, populations, payment, and language, in line with the Iowa statewide median of 31 (255 facilities listed).
