DEA announced it would keep telehealth access for some medications but remove it for others including buprenorphine, a major treatment for addiction.
TULSA, Okla. — In our two America series, we’re aiming to cover the America you know and the America you may not. The America we all know is an end to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency.

When COVID-19 hit, that need erupted. The DEA used the public health emergency to greatly expand prescribing medication without seeing a patient in person. Two years later, a study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and others found telehealth treatment related to addiction led to lower odds of an overdose – at a time when tens of thousands die from overdose each year.
