| hmmm..........not sure and that is a good question. I will do some research on it and see what I can find out. And just for clarification, you are wanting to know if Colorado MEDICARE (not medicaid) pays for ORT w/methadone or suboxone, right? | |

Check out this link. From what I can tell, methadone is not covered by medicare. Unless maybe it is prescribed for pain and not addiction treatment. | |
