Buprenorphine Enhanced and Supportive Medication-Assisted Recovery and Treatment (BESMART)

The Division of TennCare along with the contracted managed care organizations (MCO), Wellpoint, BlueCare and UnitedHealthcare, has determined the need for a comprehensive network of providers who offer specific enhanced services for members with opioid use disorder (OUD). These providers may be agencies or licensed independent practitioners, but all must attest to provide treatment as outlined in the BESMART program description to be a part of this network.
