Abstract
Drug overdose and substance use treatment admissions data indicate that opioid use is problematic in Kentucky, but little information exists about the geographic availability of buprenorphine treatment across the state. Furthermore, there is even less information about the characteristics of the physicians prescribing buprenorphine. This report describes the availability of buprenorphine treatment in Kentucky.
