Sparse-record desk: North Charles Institute for the Addict - Medication Unit at the Camb

Signature: MAT flagged. North Charles Institute for the Addict - Medication Unit at the Camb is a sparse N-SUMHSS sheet (18 attrs; below 30). Treat missing MAT/Medicaid/modality rows as unreported, not proven absent; confirm by phone before travel.

What is present: outpatient, detox; Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, a sliding-fee scale, payment assistance. What is thin: many SAMHSA fields blank on this vintage. North Charles Institute for the Addict's SAMHSA record documents fewer attributes (18) than the typical Massachusetts facility (state median: 34, out of 415 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.
