To Katie’s point about how difficult it is for opioid addicts to get treatment. I’m a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Va. I worked as the chief clinical officer for a medium sized opioid treatment center. It is not by any means difficult to get on opioid replacement therapy. There are multiple treatment centers in all US cities. Admission criteria is very simple for clients seeking service and you can self report the admissions criteria which basically means if you show up they will treat you. Yes you cannot get it RX’d by your PCP in most cases but to say that it is difficult to get RX’d methadone or buprenorphine is not true. Additionally in my state Medicaid now pays for opioid treatment therapy! Love the show and think the world of K&J. Thank you for all you do.
