Training and Certification
Overview of Specialized Training, Including Required Certifications
In Texas, including the Lubbock area, healthcare providers who prescribe methadone or buprenorphine (Suboxone) for opioid use disorder must complete rigorous training and obtain specific certifications. These certifications ensure compliance with both federal and state regulations and guarantee a high standard of care in medication-assisted treatment (MAT), as outlined on https://www.methadone.org/doctors/texas/lubbock-county/lubbock/.
