Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)

The Commission acknowledges that for some clients drug free treatment has been ineffective in dealing with addiction. As a result in November 2005 we began our Suboxone Program.

Currently we are seeing clients in our Carbon county office through an Exception Program granted by the Department of Drug & Alcohol Division of Licensing and in addition this service is provided by contracted providers in Monroe County.

• To gain entry into the Suboxone program in Carbon county contact the Referral Center at 1-866-824-3578. A full assessment will be completed and a referral will be made to the Suboxone Coordinator.
• To gain entry into Suboxone programs in Monroe County contact Catholic Social Services at (570) 517-0892.
• Cost sharing for doctor visit, counseling and pharmacy fees for the uninsured client.
• Ability to bill MA/CCBH for doctor visits.
• Counseling is a required component of the Suboxone program.
