Drug Courts
Klinic’s online addiction treatment platform improves patient outcomes and access while decreasing costs.
Virtual medication-assisted treatment and counseling platform improves access and increases effectiveness of Drug Court substance abuse programs.
Drug courts are a demonstrably effective alternative to jail or prison, and they have removed numerous obstacles to treatment. But many drug court teams are still operating primarily in-person. Like rehab centers and addiction physicians across the country, court
coordinators can lead their drug court teams to remove even more barriers to access by extending their care online.
Court coordinators have an opportunity to meet program goals by capitalizing on the benefits of online addiction treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD). An online program is far easier to scale to meet growing demands, and this decreases the strain on court coordinators who already have so much to manage.
The Klinic platform enables drug courts to offer virtual medication-assisted treatment and counseling through a streamlined, user-friendly platform.
Online medication-assisted treatment (MAT):
Is affordable
Removes barriers such as transportation, appointment time conflicts, or other access issues
Offers participants consistency, even if they move or change jobs
Substantially reduces overhead, because no physical building is required
Enables convenient, virtual access to physicians, counselors, and other providers, supporting any work-from-home initiatives

Instant Aftercare Program for Better Patient Outcomes
Aftercare is shown to improve patient health outcomes and decrease relapse rates. Also called continued care, aftercare has been recognized as a differentiating factor in patients’ continued sobriety, especially for patients with opioid use disorder. But many centers don’t have the time, money, or staff to dedicate to developing and maintaining an effective aftercare program. It’s even more challenging to create a program that supports ongoing medication-assisted treatment (MAT).
