“Opioid addiction has immeasurable impacts on those who are fighting the disease, as well as their loved ones,” Ido Schoenberg, MD, American Well CEO and chairman, said in a news release. “Telehealth has begun to play a significant role in expanding access to the treatment and prevention of opioid addiction — both in rural and urban areas. We’re excited we have partnered with Netsmart to show how technology can help assist with this critical need.”
