FasPsych Virtual MAT Process
Our streamlined three-step process makes it easy for organizations to implement effective medication-assisted treatment programs without disrupting existing workflows.

Based on the evaluation, the provider determines MAT eligibility, initiates medication when clinically appropriate, and develops an individualized treatment plan that integrates therapy, support services, and ongoing monitoring.

FasPsych providers conduct regular virtual visits to monitor symptoms, adjust medications, evaluate progress, and collaborate with your clinical team to ensure consistent, safe, and continuous care.

What Customers Say About FasPsych
FAQs: Virtual Medication-Assisted Treatment
Virtual MAT can support treatment for several forms of drug use and alcohol use disorder. Treatment providers assess each patient’s needs and determine whether MAT is appropriate for conditions such as opioid use disorder, alcohol dependence, or polysubstance use. When clinically appropriate, treatment may include therapy recommendations, behavioral interventions, or referrals to additional treatment providers for comprehensive support.
During the assessment, licensed clinicians review the patient’s substance use history, withdrawal symptoms, medical conditions, and treatment goals. They then create an individualized plan that may include Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone), methadone, Vivitrol (naltrexone), or other FDA-approved medications for the treatment of substance use disorders. Medication decisions are based on clinical guidelines, safety considerations, and the patient’s level of stability.
Yes. Virtual medication-assisted treatment is an effective option for individuals with opioid use disorder, including those experiencing opioid addiction, opioid dependence, or ongoing opiate misuse. FasPsych’s providers use evidence-based protocols and FDA-approved medications—such as Suboxone, methadone, naloxone, or Vivitrol—to support recovery, reduce cravings, and stabilize patients in partnership with your organization’s existing care teams.
Absolutely. FasPsych partners with healthcare organizations, residential treatment centers, and opioid treatment programs to expand access to licensed MAT providers. Virtual care can support intake evaluations, ongoing medication management, counseling coordination, progress monitoring, and transitions of care—strengthening your program’s capacity and improving patient retention.
Virtual MAT may be a good fit for individuals who need help managing cravings or withdrawal symptoms, have a busy schedule, prefer privacy, or live far from a treatment center. It’s also helpful if a loved one or family member has expressed concerns about your well-being or if you’re noticing signs of addiction alongside mental health concerns.
Follow-up visits are held through secure telehealth platforms, enabling providers to check medication adherence, evaluate cravings or withdrawal symptoms, and make dosage adjustments as needed. These visits also allow clinicians to track progress, coordinate behavioral health interventions, and ensure patients remain connected to the appropriate treatment options and support services.
Absolutely. All appointments take place on encrypted, HIPAA-compliant platforms. Only you and your clinician can access your personal health information, medication plan, and assessment details.
