Does anyone know a Doctor that can prescribe suboxone to treat opiate addiction, in the MD,WV,or PA areas?


Question:
I am currently going to a treatment center for opiate addiction. They give me suboxone, which keeps me from using opiates and I see a counselor once a week, which helps very much. The problem is I have to go every day to get the suboxone and it takes over an hour to get to the clinic, each way and they do not accept any medical insurance. The cost for the suboxone is over $600.00 monthly and between $300.00-$350.00 for gas. I need to find a doctor who is licensed to prescribe suboxone so that I can use my insurance because I can't afford what I'm paying now and I can't stop my treatment. I have come to far for that to happen.

Answers:
I found this on the website below. Follow the link and you should be able to see a listing of the doctors in your area. Compare that versus the list of in-network providers for your insurance and you should be in good shape.

"A nationwide registry of physicians who have taken this training is available at buprenorphine.samhsa.gov/bwns_. You can choose Physician List Search at the bottom of the page to search by city, county, zip code or state or just click on the state you want on the map."
