Why virtual addiction treatment matters in Rhode Island
Rhode Island has been significantly impacted by the opioid epidemic, with overdose deaths remaining a critical public health concern. From January 2024 to January 2025, 307 people in the state died from drug overdoses, a devastating reminder that people continue to struggle with substance dependence far and wide.
Stigma is still one of the biggest barriers. In tight-knit neighborhoods and small communities, the fear of being recognized at a clinic or pharmacy can stop someone from ever making that first call. Add to that the stress of unreliable transportation, long waitlists, and providers stretched thin, and care feels beyond reach.
That’s where virtual treatment becomes a way in. Being able to meet with a licensed provider from your own home, on your own time, means you don’t have to feel uncomfortable when seeking treatment, nor do you have to figure out how to get to a treatment center.

Frequently asked questions about MAT in Rhode Island
Is MAT available to incarcerated individuals in Rhode Island?
Yes. Rhode Island is the first state to offer comprehensive MAT to its entire prison population. This program provides all three FDA-approved medications for opioid use disorder, along with counseling, both during incarceration and after release, significantly reducing overdose deaths among this high-risk group.
What is the Rhode Island Centers of Excellence (COE) program?
Rhode Island’s Centers of Excellence (COE) are specialized facilities certified by the state to provide comprehensive, evidence-based treatment for opioid use disorder. The COE model aims to expand and enhance statewide capacity for treating opioid use disorder by integrating services into a managed care environment.
