Of all states in the United States, West Virginia is one that likely benefits the most from the advancements and allowance of fully online telehealth for opioid addiction treatment. West Virginia is the third most rural state in the United States, only surpassed by Vermont and Maine. As reported by West Virginia University (WVU) 50 of the 55 counties (91%) in West Virginia have a shortage of health care professionals and are classified as medically underserved. The poverty rate in West Virginia is also third in the nation. When you add all this information with the fact that the state also has led the nation in overdoses for over a decade, clearly shows the need for all treatment options to be available to the residents of West Virginia. This is where online Suboxone treatment via telehealth as offered by Recover Clarity can assist in bridging this gap to medical care and help assist the many that are in need in West Virginia.
Finding a comprehensive list of all available telehealth opioid addiction treatment facilities in West Virginia is almost impossible, but research shows greatly limited options compared to many other states. Even the large, almost nationwide, treatment facilities often do not operate in West Virginia. As that may seem concerning, often with these “big box store” versions of telehealth, you get what you pay for, often being a very impersonal and low level of care. This is where Recover Clarity can be of assistance. We specialize in the Appalachian area and keep our focus small and personal with all patients, providing a caring and judgment free environment.

A majority of West Virginia is very rural and leaves people without treatment options. And the areas that are more highly populated like Charleston, Beckley, Huntington, and Morgantown have some of the higher overdoes rates in the state.
