Project VBOT serves individuals across all regions of Tennessee, including urban centers like Nashville, Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, and Clarksville — and rural communities throughout East Tennessee, the Cumberland Plateau, and West Tennessee, where in-person MAT providers are scarce.
Because care is delivered virtually through secure telehealth, geography is not a barrier. The same quality of licensed, clinical treatment is available regardless of where in Tennessee you live. All clinical services in Tennessee are provided by Pathway Healthcare, the licensed clinical entity authorized in the state.
Tennessee's rural communities — particularly across East Tennessee and the Cumberland Plateau — face a significant shortage of outpatient addiction treatment providers. Virtual MAT programs like Project VBOT help close that gap, delivering evidence-based care to individuals who would otherwise have no local access.
All services are delivered virtually by licensed Tennessee clinicians at Pathway Healthcare and are available to individuals located anywhere in the state.
Virtual buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) prescribing and medication management for OUD in Tennessee — including treatment for fentanyl, heroin, and prescription opioid dependency.
Virtual clinical treatment and medication management for alcohol use disorder in Tennessee — including naltrexone, acamprosate, and individualized counseling support.
Evidence-based treatment for kratom dependency in Tennessee, delivered by clinicians experienced with kratom's unique withdrawal and treatment challenges.

Legally mandated substance use evaluations for Tennessee courts — conducted virtually by licensed clinicians and documented to applicable legal standards.

Where can I get Suboxone virtually in Tennessee?
Project VBOT provides virtual Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) prescribing to patients located anywhere in Tennessee. After a clinical assessment via secure telehealth with a Pathway Healthcare clinician, your prescription is sent electronically to a pharmacy of your choice. Same-day access is available in many cases — call (838) 438-8268 to get started.
Does VBOT accept TennCare?
Yes. Project VBOT accepts TennCare coverage, including TennCare managed care plans — Amerigroup, BlueCare, and UnitedHealthcare Community Plan. We also accept Medicare, Tricare, and most commercial insurance plans.
Is virtual MAT available in rural Tennessee?
Yes — and this is one of the most important things Project VBOT does. Rural Tennessee communities, particularly across East Tennessee and the Cumberland Plateau, often have few or no local MAT providers. Virtual care allows individuals in any part of Tennessee to receive the same licensed, evidence-based treatment available in cities like Nashville or Memphis.
Is treatment confidential — will anyone in my community know?
Treatment is entirely confidential. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) and HIPAA protect your treatment records. Your employer, family, community members, and neighbors will not be notified. You can attend virtual appointments from home with complete privacy.
How quickly can I start treatment in Tennessee?
Same-day access is available in many cases. After you contact us, our team schedules a confidential clinical assessment as quickly as possible — often the same day. If MAT is appropriate, your prescription can be sent to your pharmacy the same day as your first clinical visit.
You don't have to have everything figured out before you call.
Support is available today.
