Which code does this activity belong in?
Residential Mental Health and Substance Abuse Facilities provide room, board, and counseling services primarily for patients with mental health and substance abuse illnesses, with medical services incidental to their core treatment mission. The distinction from Residential Intellectual and Developmental Disability Facilities lies in the condition treated; Mental Health and Substance Abuse Facilities serve patients with mental illness or addiction disorders, while Intellectual and Developmental Disability Facilities serve patients with intellectual or developmental disabilities. Although both provide residential care with counseling and supervision, the underlying clinical focus differs fundamentally between the two industry categories.
