Narcotic Treatment Services. Within a reasonable distance from a member’s residence, the HMO must provide access to narcotic treatment services (NTS) or medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid dependence vial eligible facilities and/or providers. HMOs must regularly monitor their NTS and MAT provider networks to ensure that members have access to these services. Narcotic treatment services include member assessment, screening for drugs of abuse, screening for certain infectious diseases, prescription and administration of narcotic medication, and substance abuse counseling. The ForwardHealth Online Handbook section for ‘Narcotic Treatment’ outlines policy for services provided by narcotic treatment programs certified under Wis. Adm. Code § DHS 75.
