How to Find a Medicaid Suboxone Doctor and Treatment Center

Introduction to Finding A Medicaid Suboxone Treatment Clinic

Suboxone can be hard to find. You do not need to buy it illegally. I have seen many clients overpay for their Suboxone. There is a free resource to help you find a Suboxone doctor/treatment center near you.

This blog is purposely written so it is easy to read.

Step 1: Go to the SAMHSA Suboxone Treatment Locator Page

Click here to go to the website.

You can also click the link on the next line.

https://findtreatment.samhsa.gov/locator#

The website looks like this.

Step 2: Type your Zip Code in the SAMHSA Locator

1. Type in your zip code in the search box. Once you see your town, select it.

2. Then, click “Search Facilities.”

3. Click the Substance Use (SU) Dropdown Menu

1. Click the down arrow next to the Substance Use arrow.

4. Show Medicaid Facilities Only

1. Click the search box. In the search box, type in Medicaid.
2. Click the box next to Medicaid.

5. Show Outpatient Facilities Only

1. After you typed in Medicaid, click the search box and delete medicaid. Then, type in outpatient.
2. Click the box next to the one that says Outpatient methadone/buprenorphine or naltrexone treatment.

6. Show places that prescribe Suboxone (Buprenorphine)

1. Delete the word outpatient. Then, type in prescribes.
2. Click the box next to prescribes buprenorphine. Buprenorphine is in Suboxone.
3. Then, exit the menu by clicking on the X

7. See the list of Suboxone Facilities

1. Once you get out of the menu, you will see all the places that prescribe Suboxone. Sometimes, the information on this website is wrong. You need to call each place and make sure they do these things.

8. Ask these questions when you call the Suboxone Clinic

1. Is this an outpatient facility? (An outpatient facility means that you go there, then you go home. You do not stay overnight. Inpatient is where you stay overnight.)
2. Is Suboxone prescribed here?
3. Do you accept patients Medicaid for Suboxone?
4. How much will this cost? I have Medicaid.
5. When is your soonest availability?
6. Is there anything else I should know before my visit?
