Ourera provides specialty addiction medicine services to any California resident who is 16 or older and has needs related to substance addiction or dependence.
Ourera is currently accepting patients using commercial (employer) or Medicare insurance through
Anthem Blue Cross, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare (Optum), and Traditional Medicare.
Ourera provides telemedicine-first outpatient medical services for
opioid use disorder,
alcohol use disorder,
benzodiazepine use disorder, and
stimulant use disorder
and will assess and treat co-occurring conditions as may be addressed safely and effectively through telemedicine.
“or dependence?”
Yes, in some cases. If your patient is physiologically dependent on a benzodiazepine, for instance, and in need of a long-acting taper plan to reduce or eliminate tolerance, Ourera can provide this service whether or not criteria for addiction are met.
Ourera coordinates with you by sharing health records and by being available for secure direct messaging whenever we have consent from our shared patient to do so.
How do I refer?
The simplest way is to direct your patient to schedule an initial appointment through our enrollment page, which only takes a minute and can be done together in your exam room.
Ask them to be sure to provide your information when they complete their enrollment forms, which are sent promptly upon scheduling.
