Definitions of Categories of Care for Treatment Scout GPT

NAMI Montana’s Treatment Scout GPT is a powerful tool developed to help families navigate specialized mental health care options across the U.S., especially for hard-to-access services like those in Seattle. The tool categorizes over 5,000 facilities by type—such as inpatient mental health, addiction, IOP, PHP, TMS, ketamine, ECT, and more—making it easier to locate targeted care. To use it effectively, users should first identify the specific type of treatment needed. While comprehensive, users are encouraged to double-check all information and explore more resources on the NAMI Montana website.

Please Take a Moment to Ask Senators Daines and Sheehy to Support Care for Montanans on Medicaid

The U.S. Senate is currently debating Medicaid-funded care, which is vital for Montanans living with mental health conditions. Please consider reaching out to Senators Steve Daines and Tim Sheehy to respectfully urge their support for continued Medicaid access. A positive, polite message can make a real difference. Medicaid helps individuals and families access the mental health care they need to recover and thrive. Contact information and a sample message are included to make it easy to speak up.

Thank you for supporting mental health care in Montana—have a great Fourth of July!
