Feather River Tribal Health

Feather River Tribal Health is an outpatient addiction treatment provider in Oroville, California and operates within a tribal run Federally Qualified Health Center.

They provide outpatient care and medication treatment as well as mental health support and standard recovery services.

The integration of addiction care with a full community health system and its roots as a Maidu tribal health organization are all pieces of the center that make it unique.

Combining Addiction, Primary and Dental Care

Substance use treatment sits inside a single facility that also houses medical and dental, pharmacy and podiatry, senior nutrition and telepsychiatry services.

A patient starting buprenorphine or naltrexone can fill prescriptions on site and get hepatitis and HIV testing, receive vaccinations and see a primary care provider without coordinating across separate organizations.

For someone with untreated medical conditions alongside a substance use disorder, there's no need for a referral which can derail outpatient recovery.

Feather River Tribal Health also has case management, transportation assistance and help obtaining social services which makes it a practical fit for clients in Oroville who lack reliable access to fragmented care.

A Maidu Tribal Health Provider

Feather River Tribal Health is associated with the Enterprise Rancheria, Berry Creek Rancheria and Mooretown Rancheria of Maidu Indians and delivers care as an Indian Health Service supported provider.

Its documented reach spans Oroville and Paradise, Gridley and Marysville, Yuba City and surrounding rural communities.

Beyond tribal ties, the Oroville program offers support for pregnant and postpartum clients as well as adolescents, transitional age young adults and older adults along with Spanish and sign language services.

Feather River Tribal Health serves Butte, Sutter and Yuba counties and accepts Medicare and Medicaid, private insurance and TRICARE, IHS and tribal funds and self pay with a sliding fee scale based on income.
