SUD treatment works, but it’s not always accessible. That’s why we advocate for:

🏥Medicare coverage for residential SUD treatment programs meeting evidence-based standards

👨‍⚕️Allowing addiction specialist physicians to prescribe methadone for OUD that can be filled at a pharmacy

Reauthorizing the SUPPORT Act is a necessary step to address America’s addiction crisis – but it’s just the beginning. More action is needed to strengthen access to quality addiction care.
