At Health Care Resource Centers (HCRC), we recognize that effective Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) treatment begins with strong collaboration across the healthcare community.
Â
As a leading provider of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with methadone across Massachusetts and New Hampshire, HCRC partners with hospitals, emergency departments, behavioral health professionals, and community clinicians to ensure that patients receive prompt, evidence-based care, especially during moments of crisis or transition.
Healthcare and behavioral health providers on the front lines, including ED teams, urgent care centers, primary care clinics, and mental health professionals, frequently encounter individuals experiencing opioid withdrawal, overdose risk, or SUD-related complications.
In 2023, Massachusetts recorded 2,125 opioid-related overdose deaths, a 10% decrease from 2022, and the first decline since 2019. This progress highlights the critical role that timely referral into evidence-based treatment plays in preventing overdose deaths and supporting stabilization.
Our programs offer safe, structured methadone treatment, daily accountability, and integrated counseling that reinforce early stabilization and long-term recovery.
