Ochsner Addictive Behavior Unit

What the SAMHSA Record Shows About Ochsner Addictive Behavior Unit

Ochsner Addictive Behavior Unit is a substance use treatment operated by Private non-profit organization in New Orleans, Louisiana. The facility's N-SUMHSS record lists 3 primary care modalities (outpatient, detox, telehealth), 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 1514 Jefferson Highway, Brent House, 4th Floor, New Orleans, LA 70121.

On the services side, the facility self-reports 14 distinct service lines (12-step facilitation, Co-occurring disorder treatment, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Detoxification, Intensive outpatient, Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), Mental health services, Motivational interviewing, Outpatient, Partial hospitalization / day treatment, Substance use treatment, Suicide prevention services, and 2 more), 3 substance or condition categories treated (Alcohol, General substance use disorders, Opioids), and 11 clinical treatment approaches (12-step facilitation, Anger management, Brief intervention, Cognitive behavioral therapy, Contingency management/motivational incentives, Matrix Model, Motivational interviewing, Relapse prevention, Substance use disorder counseling, Telemedicine/telehealth therapy, Trauma-related counseling). It serves 2 specific population groups (Adults, 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 Medicare, private insurance, plus 4 specific payment methods enumerated in the survey (Cash or self-payment, Federal military insurance (e.g., TRICARE), Medicare, Private health insurance).

Ochsner Addictive Behavior Unit reports 36 attributes across services, populations, payment, and language, in line with the Louisiana statewide median of 34 (204 facilities listed).
