Does [state_name] medicaid cover Suboxone?

Yes — [STATE_NAME] Medicaid covers Suboxone® treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD). Coverage generally includes clinician visits, medication, and related treatment support, which makes it possible for many patients to access care at little to no cost. Here is what [STATE_NAME] Medicaid coverage generally includes

  • Clinician visits. Telehealth visits with a licensed clinician are typically covered under [STATE_NAME] Medicaid plans.
  • Medication. [STATE_NAME] Medicaid generally covers buprenorphine-based medications for OUD, including Suboxone® and its generic equivalent, buprenorphine/naloxone. In most cases, patients receive the generic version rather than brand-name Suboxone®. Both are clinically equivalent and work the same way.
  • Prior authorization.  Some [STATE_NAME] Medicaid plans may require prior authorization before covering Suboxone®. Ophelia handles this process on your behalf.
  • Out-of-pocket costs . Most [STATE_NAME] Medicaid patients pay little to nothing for care, and many pay less than $10 per month. [STATE_MEDICAID_COST_DETAILS]

What our patients are saying

I have been a patient with Ophelia for over a year now, and I can say with total confidence that they have been a vital part of my journey.

This place is like no other, humanity, respect, dignity and friendship. I love my monthly meetings. They dont make you feel ashamed or embarrassed for choices made in the past.

Ophelia has been a life saver for me! Very friendly, respectful, and professional. Easy to work with, and great with scheduling. Very highly recommend for your recovery journey.

I’ve been with Ophelia Health for about 2½ years, and they’ve been amazing. Their online Suboxone treatment makes appointments and prescription refills easy, which has helped me stay sober.

I prefer this method over a methadone clinic or going to the streets to get something that could kill me. Highly recommended for people who are willing to get off the street drugs.
