Coronavirus Crisis Spurs Access To Online Treatment For Opioid Addiction
Dr. Dawn Abriel, who treated Post and previously directed a methadone clinic in Albuquerque, N.M., says she can diagnose patients over video without issue.
"I can pick up an awful lot on the video," particularly a patient's body language, she says. "I think people open up to me more because they are sitting in their homes and in their place of comfort."
In West Virginia, one of the states hardest hit by the opioid addiction epidemic, Highmark, a Blue Cross Blue Shield company, started offering telehealth addiction coverage with Bright Heart Health in January. Highmark officials say a lack of health providers, particularly in rural parts of the state, meant that many of the insurer's members had difficulty finding the help they needed.
Dr. Caesar DeLeo, vice president and executive medical director of strategic initiatives for Highmark, says the insurer had been having problems getting customers into care. Only about a third of members with addiction issues were receiving treatment, he says.
"We needed to address the crisis with a new approach," DeLeo says. "This will give people more options and give primary care doctors who do not want to prescribe Suboxone another place to refer patients."
BIG BADDA BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
