❓ Medication-Assisted Treatment FAQ

Is MAT replacing one drug with another?

No. MAT uses safe, controlled medications to help the brain heal and reduce the risk of relapse. It’s a proven medical treatment — not a substitution.

How long will I be on medication?

It varies. Some patients need it for months, others for years. Our goal is to support your stability, not rush you off treatment.

Do I have to go to therapy, too?

We recommend combining MAT with therapy or support groups for the best results, but it’s not mandatory to get started.

Will insurance cover MAT?

Most plans do cover Suboxone and Sublocade, but we’ll check your benefits and help with prior authorizations if needed.

How soon can I start?

Often within a few days. After a medical assessment, we can begin induction safely and set you up for success.
