Facility inventory and MAT share are two maps on the same N-SUMHSS record. MAT share is the percent of listings that report medication-assisted treatment, not a quality grade.

Facility-type inventory

How Alaska's 99 listings split by survey type

Exclusive N-SUMHSS facility_type codes (SA, MH, BOTH) inside this state. Orthogonal to the inventory≠MAT dual above: type is the survey category, not a national rank. The overlapping SA/MH shares in the narrative below can exceed 100%; these three buckets cannot.

Substance Use & Mental Health 15 listings (15%) Substance Use Treatment 68 listings (69%) Mental Health Treatment 16 listings (16%)

What the Alaska Treatment Landscape Looks Like

SAMHSA's N-SUMHSS record lists 99 treatment facilities operating across 29 cities in Alaska. 84% of facilities (83 sites) report substance-use treatment and 31% (31 sites) report mental-health treatment, these are not mutually exclusive categories, many facilities report both, so the two figures do not sum to the total facility count. Care modalities are unevenly distributed: 31% of facilities report residential beds, 81% run outpatient programs, 7% offer medically supervised detox, and 85% provide telehealth options, which matters a lot for rural counties where driving to a brick-and-mortar site is a real barrier.

Medication-Assisted Treatment is a reported service flag, not a quality grade. In Alaska, 45 of 99 facilities (45%) report providing MAT (methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone). Payment flags: 90 facilities (91%) report accepting Medicaid. Confirm current contracts with the facility; survey flags lag real-world changes.

Use this page as a structured starting point for comparing cities and shortlisting facilities, not as a clinical recommendation. Every facility entry links to its individual profile with phone numbers, accepted payment types, and services, always call before visiting to verify current availability, intake hours, and insurance contracts, which can change between survey cycles. This is a public-data directory summary, not medical advice. If you or someone you care about is in an immediate crisis, call the SAMHSA National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357 or the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline before navigating this directory.

Recovery Access Index

How broadly Alaska's facilities report care and payment access

A single number combining the six reported-service rates above (MAT, Medicaid, detox, telehealth, residential, outpatient), each benchmarked against every other reporting state and territory. This is an access & documentation breadth signal, not a clinical-quality grade or a ranking of care outcomes, no facility-level or patient-outcome data feeds it.
