Provider Health Group: Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) in Ohio

At Provider Health Group, we are dedicated to offering comprehensive, evidence-based treatment for individuals struggling with addiction. Our Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) program integrates FDA-approved medications in collaboration with behavioral therapy to address both the physical and psychological aspects of substance use disorders.

What is Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)?

MAT is a proven approach that combines medication in addition to counseling and behavioral therapies to treat substance use disorders. The FDA-approved medications we use—such as Suboxone, Vivitrol, Buprenorphine, and Naltrexone—help reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms while minimizing the risk of relapse. By integrating these treatments with personalized therapy, MAT supports individuals in achieving long-term recovery.

How Provider Health Group’s MAT Program Works

Our MAT program is designed to meet the unique needs of each individual. Treatment begins with a thorough assessment by an experienced Nurse Practitioner, who then develops a personalized plan that may include:

• FDA-Approved Medications: These help to manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings without producing a euphoric effect.

• PHG works in collaboration with Individual and Group Therapists: Evidence-based counseling sessions to address underlying causes of addiction and build coping skills.

• Medical Supervision: Ongoing monitoring and medication management to ensure safety and effectiveness.

• Holistic Support: Work in collaboration with additional resources, including support groups and lifestyle coaching, to promote overall well-being.
