Extended Profile: How VA Los Angeles Ambulatory Care Center Compares Locally
VA Los Angeles Ambulatory Care Center's SAMHSA record is unusually complete: 47 reported attributes places it at rank #80 of 1,580 California facilities by self-reported completeness (top 5%). Narrowed to just Los Angeles, it ranks #8 of 111 local facilities on the same measure, a comparison the statewide figure alone can't show since a facility can be a state-wide standout while being one of several similarly detailed programs in its own city, or vice versa.
A high self-reported-completeness rank is not a clinical quality signal, SAMHSA does not audit or verify the survey responses facilities submit. It does mean this specific record answers more of the practical questions (which populations, which languages, which payment types) before you have to call and ask.
