Medicaid/Illinois: Call State of Illinois Insurance Department or go to a University Hospital and ask at the Dept of Medicine. In NY they restrict the number of docs who can write scripts for suboxone. And most of all try to get your life together!

Detox help: Look on your state's Department of Health website for low cost clinics near you, ask your pcp for substance abuse clinics/programs, do your own search, go to NA meetings and ask around.

Question 5

i can't afford my dr visits since i was layoff and i've been out of suboxone 2 days now do you except united healthcare community plan from medicaid ny and can you prescribe suboxone over the phone?

: Unfortunately, Suboxone is a controlled medication and requires an in person visit for refill or initial prescription. It cannot be refilled or prescribed by any Telemedicine Dr either on HealthTap or other platforms.

Question 6

why is it so hard to find a doctor for suboxone?

Accepted Answer

The main reason: The 100 patient limit.  Also many doctors are doing this solely for the dollar signs and the reasonable one are at their treatment limits

Question 7

any insights for why can't more doctors prescribe suboxone?

Accepted Answer

Tough question!: This drug is used in physicians" offices, instead of Methadone treatment.  It is also given to patients' for home use.  Professionals are hesitant and careful to allow such drugs to be taken without confidence in lack of abuse.

Question 8

if you already see a suboxone doctor can you change doctors?

Accepted Answer

: Changing doctor is patient's right but it's sometimes limited by authorized medical insurance.

Question 9

what to do if i have my 1st appt at a suboxone doctor in a week.. need advice!?

Accepted Answer

What is your ?: What to do is keep your appointment if you have an opioid dependency, which i would imagine you do since you made the appt with a Suboxone provider. He will ask you questions, you answer them.  He should give you all the information you need to decide on Suboxone treatment, and should also recommend ongoing counseling. You can get more information about Buprenorphine online (www.Suboxone.Com).

Question 10

my doctor is on leave and i need a script for suboxone 2mg, where should i go now?

Accepted Answer

To the covering Dr.: A doctor who has gone unavailable should have a covering doctor answer calls until he or she returns to the office. Otherwise, patients will not have a place to go to get controlled substances or other potentially abusable meds that are not (or should not be) prescribed nor refilled without an in-person exam. An urgent care or ER may or may not be able to give a temporary refill.
