About HCRC Lewiston Treatment Center: Programs, Staff & Mission

Healthcare Resource Centers (HCRC) Lewiston, operating as Merrimack River Medical Services, is an outpatient opioid treatment program located in Lewiston, Maine, providing Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) and comprehensive addiction recovery services for individuals with opioid use disorder. As part of the HCRC network — one of the largest providers of opioid treatment services across the northeastern United States — the Lewiston location delivers evidence-based addiction medicine in a compassionate, patient-centered environment.

Medication-Assisted Treatment
The Lewiston center provides FDA-approved Medication-Assisted Treatment utilizing methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone, combined with individual and group counseling to address the multifaceted nature of opioid addiction. MAT is recognized by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) as the most effective treatment for opioid use disorder, with strong evidence showing reductions in illicit opioid use, overdose deaths, infectious disease transmission, and criminal activity.

Each patient's treatment plan is developed collaboratively by a care team that includes addiction medicine physicians, registered nurses, licensed alcohol and drug counselors, and care coordinators. Plans incorporate medication dosing, counseling frequency, drug screening protocols, and measurable recovery goals tailored to the individual's clinical needs and personal circumstances.

Counseling and Recovery Support
Beyond medication management, HCRC Lewiston offers individual counseling, group therapy, relapse prevention education, and referrals to community resources for housing, employment, legal assistance, and medical care. The center's approach recognizes that medication alone is insufficient for lasting recovery — addressing the psychological, social, and environmental factors that contribute to addiction is essential for sustained sobriety.

Addressing the Opioid Crisis in Maine
Maine has experienced one of the most severe opioid epidemics in the nation, with drug overdose deaths reaching record levels in recent years driven by illicit fentanyl. Lewiston, the second-largest city in Maine with approximately 37,000 residents, has been significantly affected. HCRC Lewiston provides critical treatment capacity in the Androscoggin County region, offering accessible, affordable care to individuals who might otherwise face long wait times or travel significant distances for opioid treatment. The center accepts MaineCare (Medicaid), most private insurance plans, and offers financial assistance for uninsured patients.
