Methadone Clinics Or Medicaid Doctors (Page 2) (Top voted first)

My son and daughter inlaw are on methadone and they both are on medicaid. Is there a Medicaid Dr in birmingham where they can receive a prescription for methadone without having to pay the high cost of the dose wheter it is from pain or from addiction???? Please help me I am on SS and try to help them but I can only do so much. They have tried Suboxone but it made them sick. I would rather see them on methadone than on pills or whatever addiction.

Methadone is the cheapest way to detox off opiates but i would not recomand it for anyone as long as there is suboxone and subutex to b had...much better choice and much safer

Depending on your state, Methadone clinics are paid by private pay (pt pays), weekly fee about 80 $ to 100 $. Includes meds, counseling, lab tests and Dr. and Nurses. Another form of pay is a block grant sliding scale bringing in proof of income to adjust how much you pay and the grant for your county or state. Also Medicaid & Medicare are accepted most clinics.

Methadone is one of the cheapest pills to be on, if you have a prescription. I get 270 10 mg. pills for $27.22. That is alot of pills. Usually clinics go by income or are free. It depends. Doctors are not allowed by law to prescribe methadone for dependency.
