The South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (SCDHHS) is increasing the reimbursement rate for opioid treatment programs (OTP). Effective for dates of service on or after Oct. 1, 2025, SCDHHS will update the reimbursement rate for State Plan-covered OTP services.
OTPs provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for people diagnosed with an opioid use disorder. These services must be provided in a Drug Enforcement Administration-approved, and Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration-accredited clinic-based setting.
SCDHHS will update the Opioid Treatment Programs Fee Schedule by Oct. 1, 2025, to reflect the following rate increases:
Procedure Code | Description | Current Rate | Rate Effective Oct. 1, 2025 |

G2067 | MAT-Methadone, weekly bundle | $102.04 | $193.60 |
G2068 | MAT-Buprenorphine, weekly bundle, oral | $133.76 | $213.03 |
