Suboxone, buprenorphine and Vivitrol providers in Utah
Buprenorphine treatment may be available through primary-care clinicians, psychiatrists, addiction-medicine practices, and community behavioral health programs. Search FindTreatment.gov by ZIP code for current medication services, or ask a clinician whether they offer naltrexone injections.
Utah local behavioral health services, including Davis Behavioral Health and Four Corners Community Behavioral Health, may help with treatment navigation. Check specific medications, appointment availability, and insurance directly.
Listings are based on the CMS Medicare OTP file dated September 8, 2026; the file identifies enrolled OTP locations and should not be treated as a full inventory of every prescriber. Confirm hours, intake, and payment with the clinic.
MAT Treatment Options in Utah by Medication
Medication assisted treatment in Utah includes methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. The appropriate option depends on medical needs, access, and personal preference; a licensed clinician can help with that decision.
Methadone clinics in Utah
Utah has 15 listed methadone OTP locations across 12 cities. Most are along the Ogden–Salt Lake–Orem corridor; other locations include Logan, Tooele, Price, Moab, and St. George. Methadone for opioid use disorder is delivered through certified opioid treatment programs, often with frequent visits early in treatment. Find a clinic you can realistically reach and ask how scheduling, dosing, transportation, and take-home decisions work. Learn about methadone treatment and how OTPs work.
Buprenorphine and Suboxone doctors in Utah
Suboxone and other buprenorphine formulations can be prescribed by appropriately licensed clinicians in medical offices, which can reduce the need to travel to an OTP. People searching for Suboxone doctors in Utah or buprenorphine providers in Utah can begin with FindTreatment.gov and ask local behavioral health authorities about referral options. Some services may be offered through telehealth, subject to clinical judgment and current rules. Compare medications in our buprenorphine and Suboxone guide.
Sublocade and Brixadi: longer-acting buprenorphine
Sublocade and Brixadi are clinician-administered extended-release buprenorphine injections. They may suit people who prefer fewer medication administration appointments, although clinical visits and eligibility vary. Utah clinics and prescribers should confirm whether they provide an injectable option, what the initiation process involves, and how insurance authorization works. Availability at a listed OTP cannot be assumed from its methadone status. For general medication details, see our Sublocade guide and discussion of OUD medications.
Naltrexone and Vivitrol in Utah
Vivitrol is an extended-release naltrexone injection, an option for people who have completed an appropriate opioid-free period. Starting too early can cause precipitated withdrawal, so a clinician must assess timing and suitability. If you are searching for Vivitrol in Utah, ask an addiction-medicine or behavioral health practice whether it offers the medication and related follow-up. Utah Medicaid coverage of medications for opioid use disorder is supported by federal Medicaid requirements; the treatment setting and plan rules still matter. Read more about naltrexone and Vivitrol.
| Medication | Where you get it in Utah | Visit frequency at start | Utah Medicaid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Methadone | Certified OTP | Often frequent clinic visits | Covered for OUD; confirm plan details |
| Buprenorphine / Suboxone | Qualified office-based clinician or eligible service | Varies by clinical plan | Covered for OUD; confirm formulation |
| Sublocade / Brixadi | Qualified injection provider | Administration schedule depends on product | Confirm product and authorization |
| Naltrexone / Vivitrol | Prescribing clinic / injection provider | Assessment then planned follow-up | Covered for OUD; confirm formulation |
Methadone (OTP) Rules in Utah
Utah OTPs are licensed through the Utah Department of Health and Human Services and follow federal SAMHSA and DEA requirements, including 42 CFR Part 8. The listed locations serve nine of Utah’s 29 counties, so travel can be part of starting methadone.
Starting treatment and planning intake
Call your preferred Utah OTP for its assessment schedule, admission requirements, and the information to bring. Ask about identification, insurance cards, current medications, transportation, pregnancy-related needs, and the timing of an initial clinical assessment. A provider determines treatment and dosing after evaluating the patient; no directory entry guarantees an immediate start.
Take-home medication, guest dosing and transfers
Federal OTP rules updated in 2024 allow greater clinical flexibility for methadone take-home decisions. Individual eligibility, program procedures, and applicable Utah requirements still affect whether and when take-home doses are appropriate. Before traveling or moving between Utah cities, discuss guest dosing and transfer planning directly with both programs.
Paying for Medication Assisted Treatment in Utah
Utah Medicaid covers medications for opioid use disorder under federal Medicaid requirements. Utah expanded Medicaid in 2020; eligibility and specific treatment arrangements depend on the enrollee’s benefits and treating provider.
Utah Medicaid and MAT clinics that accept Medicaid in Utah
Utah Medicaid is administered through the Utah Department of Health and Human Services. The expansion was implemented January 1, 2020, following the 2018 voter-approved initiative. Ask a program whether it accepts your particular coverage, how it bills an OTP visit or office-based prescription, and whether authorization is needed. Start at Utah Medicaid.
| Service | Covered | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Methadone for OUD | Yes | Covered Medicaid medication category; OTP and plan billing rules apply |
| Buprenorphine for OUD | Yes | Formulary, formulation, and authorization can differ |
| Naltrexone for OUD | Yes | Confirm formulation and provider billing |
| Outpatient SUD care | Check plan | Contact Utah Medicaid or the treating provider |
| Residential SUD care | Check plan | Eligibility and service limitations depend on program and plan |
Medicare coverage
Medicare Part B includes an OTP benefit for eligible opioid treatment services at participating programs. Some prescribed medicines taken outside OTPs may be handled under Part D or another applicable benefit. Contact your Medicare plan and the Utah clinic to clarify both coverage and cost sharing.
Private health insurance
Private plans may cover medication and outpatient substance use services, but formularies, network status, and cost sharing vary. When contacting a Utah OTP or buprenorphine practice, ask whether your exact plan is accepted and if an out-of-network visit would be billed differently.
No insurance or limited ability to pay
People seeking free methadone clinics in Utah should ask community behavioral health authorities and OTP intake teams whether publicly funded care, reduced fees, or other assistance is available. Davis Behavioral Health and Four Corners Community Behavioral Health are Utah starting points for local treatment navigation; their assistance and eligibility must be discussed directly.
Review our insurance coverage guide, treatment cost overview, or insurance verification.

Telehealth MAT in Utah
Telehealth Suboxone in Utah may be an option when an appropriately licensed prescriber determines remote care is suitable. Federal DEA/HHS controlled-medication telemedicine flexibilities run through December 31, 2026; Utah requirements and any later federal changes may affect what is permitted.
A telehealth visit may help with evaluation or follow-up, but remote prescribing is not guaranteed. Methadone for OUD remains dispensed through an OTP even when certain care activities can be completed remotely. Residents in Uintah Basin, San Juan County, and central Utah can ask about telehealth alongside local prescriber availability.
Read the telehealth MAT guide and confirm licensing, pharmacy arrangements, and insurance with the treating service.
Opioid Overdose in Utah: Why Access Matters
Utah recorded 674 drug overdose deaths in 2024, with an age-adjusted all-drug rate of 20.3 deaths per 100,000 people (CDC NCHS via KFF). Its rate has been relatively steady since 2019, rather than showing a dramatic recent decline.
The Utah all-drug rate moved from 21.4 in 2023 to 20.3 in 2024, below the 2024 U.S. rate of 23.1. Utah’s opioid overdose death rate in 2024 was 13.6 per 100,000, compared with the national 16.0. These statistics describe population outcomes, not an individual’s prospects in treatment.
| Year | All-drug deaths per 100,000 | Opioid deaths per 100,000 |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 18.9 | 13.3 |
| 2020 | 20.5 | 14.7 |
| 2021 | 21.1 | 14.1 |
| 2022 | 19.8 | 13.5 |
| 2023 | 21.4 | 15.4 |
| 2024 | 20.3 | 13.6 |
Medication treatment and access to naloxone are important ways communities respond to overdose risk. Utah offers several free naloxone access routes described below.

Utah Good Samaritan overdose law
Utah Code 58-37-8(16) provides an affirmative defense—not blanket immunity—for certain drug-related charges when eligible people seek overdose assistance in good faith and meet statutory conditions, including cooperation with responders. Utah Code 76-3-203.11 addresses a sentencing mitigating factor. Do not delay calling 911 to evaluate legal conditions.
MAT for Special Populations in Utah
Pregnant and postpartum people
Pregnant Utah residents with opioid use disorder should seek timely, individualized care from a qualified clinician and an obstetric team. Methadone and buprenorphine are established medication options in pregnancy, and treatment decisions should consider both parent and baby. Ask a Utah OTP or prescribing clinic how it coordinates prenatal visits and postpartum follow-up. Do not abruptly stop prescribed medication without medical guidance.
Veterans
Veterans in Utah can ask their VA care team about evaluation for opioid use disorder and medication treatment. Access to a specific medicine or site depends on clinical and program arrangements. The Utah OTP city directory can help veterans compare civilian locations when looking at treatment and travel options.
Adolescents and young adults
Young people in Utah may need age-appropriate assessment and family or caregiver participation when clinically and legally appropriate. Medication eligibility, consent, and provider experience differ from adult treatment. Ask a Utah behavioral health authority or qualified adolescent clinician which options are suitable rather than assuming an adult OTP can accept every age group.
People leaving jail or prison
Continuity of care is important when a Utah resident leaves custody. Before release, the person or support team can ask about community treatment appointments, medication records, transportation, and access to naloxone. For methadone, contact an OTP in the receiving city early about intake and transfer requirements.
Rural residents
Utah residents in San Juan County, the Uintah Basin, and much of central Utah may live far from a listed OTP. Office-based buprenorphine treatment, permitted telehealth appointments, and local behavioral health programs may offer practical alternatives. Read our guide to helping a loved one with OUD and the MAT versus MOUD terminology.

FAQs About MAT Clinics in Utah
How many methadone clinics are in Utah?
Utah has 15 Medicare-enrolled OTP locations listed in the CMS file dated September 8, 2026. They are spread across 12 cities in nine counties. Salt Lake City, Orem, and St. George each have two locations, and other programs serve cities including Ogden, Logan, Moab, Price, and Tooele. Use the city accordion directory above for addresses and telephone numbers.
Does Utah Medicaid cover Suboxone?
Yes. Federal Medicaid requirements cover medication for opioid use disorder, including buprenorphine, the medication in Suboxone. Utah Medicaid operates in a Medicaid expansion state. The exact product, pharmacy arrangements, and any authorization requirements may vary. Before scheduling, ask both your treating clinician and Utah Medicaid how your benefits apply.
Are there MAT clinics that accept Medicaid in Utah?
Utah Medicaid covers medication for opioid use disorder, but acceptance must be checked by individual provider and plan. Start with the Utah OTP directory, ask whether the location accepts your coverage, and confirm how medication and visits are billed. The Utah Medicaid website can help clarify benefits and eligibility.
Are there free methadone clinics in Utah?
Some people may qualify for Utah Medicaid or another funding arrangement, but no particular listed OTP should be assumed to offer free care. Ask its intake staff about accepted coverage and payment assistance. Local behavioral health authorities, including Davis Behavioral Health and Four Corners Community Behavioral Health, can be useful treatment-navigation starting points.
Can I get Suboxone through telehealth in Utah?
Telehealth Suboxone care may be available in Utah when a qualified clinician and applicable rules allow it. Federal DEA/HHS temporary controlled-medication telemedicine flexibilities are in effect through December 31, 2026, and Utah requirements may also apply. Confirm licensing, appointments, pharmacy access, and insurance directly. Methadone for opioid use disorder remains tied to OTP dispensing.
Where can I find methadone clinics near Salt Lake City?
The CMS directory lists two OTPs in Salt Lake City, plus one in Murray and one in Taylorsville. This makes the wider Salt Lake City area an important Utah treatment cluster. Open those city listings above to get street addresses and contact numbers, then ask the programs about their actual intake and medication schedules.
Is there a methadone clinic in Moab or Price?
Yes. The CMS September 2026 list includes Moab Regional Recovery Center in Moab and Four Corners Community Behavioral Health in Price, one listed OTP in each city. These locations are useful starting points for people in parts of southeast and eastern Utah. Call to confirm the services you need before traveling.
How do I find Vivitrol treatment in Utah?
Ask Utah addiction-medicine practices, behavioral health centers, and prescribing clinicians whether they offer extended-release naltrexone, sold as Vivitrol. It is not safe to start while opioids remain in the body, so a clinician must assess the opioid-free period and other considerations. FindTreatment.gov can help identify services by ZIP code.
Where can I get free naloxone in Utah?
Utah lists free naloxone options through Utah Naloxone at (385) 495-9050 and participating local health departments. Supplies may vary, so contact the local department before a visit. Narcan nasal spray is also sold over the counter at pharmacies. In a suspected overdose, call 911 immediately.
What if my Utah county has no opioid treatment program?
The CMS file shows OTP locations in nine of Utah’s 29 counties, meaning 20 counties have no listed location. People in the Uintah Basin can explore Price, and people in San Juan County can explore Moab, among other regional starting points. A local buprenorphine prescriber or permitted telehealth service may reduce the need for long-distance travel.
