FAQs
We believe that you deserve to understand the treatments you receive. Here are a few of our frequently asked questions. If you have any other questions, schedule an initial consultation to learn more or get in contact with our team.
Medication assisted treatment is an effective strategy to treat opioid use disorder (in combination with counseling and behavioral therapy). The most promising medication used for MAT is buprenorphine: it treats withdrawal symptoms, cravings, as well as pain and has been shown to be highly effective in the treatment of opioid addiction and dependency. Patients are often able to live normal lives with this medication, and in comparison to methadone without the need to go to methadone clinics every morning. It also has been shown to lower the risk of potentially deadly opioid overdoses.
We are a truly telemedicine-based addiction service. Certified addiction specialists may use telemedicine technology to prescribe buprenorphine to existing as well as new patients without an initial in-person visit. The DEA and Department of Health recognized that this medication prevents overdose deaths and is safer than regular opioids and therefore this exception has been granted.
Yes, if it is determined by our addiction specialist that you would benefit from MAT using buprenorphine, we are able to initiate it (also known as the âinduction phaseâ) using telemedicine technology. Your first prescriptions will have a lower quantity of tabletsâno more than a week supplyâin order to closely observe the individual effects the medication may have on you and to find your optimal dose. Once the medication has been titrated to the optimal dose, we will be able to space out the consultations to a monthly basis.
We believe that everyone should have access to opioid addiction counseling and treatment, without the need to drive to addiction clinics. Currently no initial in-person consultation is required for new patients. All visits need to be done via video or telephone (chat is not allowed), and costs $199 with no insuranceâno hidden fees. A medical evaluation online is required prior to prescriptions. We accept most insurances. If you plan to not use your insurance or if you are uninsured the total cost is $199.
Only a small number of doctors in the United States are allowed to prescribe buprenorphineâand these doctors have a limit on how many patients they can prescribe to. With the growing opioid epidemic affecting millions of Americans, there are just not enough MAT clinics and opioid treatment centers available to provide this desperately needed service. Health Express is trying to fill this void, by providing affordable, transparent and high-quality addiction treatment directly to youâto make this as least disruptive to your life as possible.
Buprenorphineâwhen prescribed and taken correctlyâhas been shown to significantly lower the chance of drug use, overdoses and relapse, while improving patient survival. It leads to a significantly higher chance to gain and maintain employment. In other words: MAT can help you turn your life around and live a normal life again. It should always be combined with counseling and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
