About Spero Health

Spero Health in Somerset, Kentucky, is part of a regional network of more than 75 outpatient addiction treatment clinics across six states. They specialize in opioid use disorder, including fentanyl, heroin, and prescription painkiller addiction, and also treat alcohol and other substance use disorders. Care is offered through standard outpatient visits, an intensive outpatient program (IOP) at many locations, and telehealth for eligible patients in Kentucky and neighboring states, so people can keep working and caring for family while in treatment. Their integrated model follows American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) guidelines and brings medical providers, counselors, and care coordinators together as one team. They are CARF accredited and accept Medicaid, Medicare, and commercial insurance.

Medication-assisted treatment is central to their care, with providers prescribing and monitoring Suboxone, Sublocade, Brixadi, and Vivitrol after a full medical and clinical evaluation, always alongside individual or group counseling. Recovery support staff help patients with practical needs such as employment, housing, child care, legal services, and transportation, and wellness programs cover smoking cessation, sleep hygiene, and nutrition. Accountability is built into treatment through medication counts, urine drug testing, and prescription monitoring. Patients often attend more frequent visits early in recovery and then see their care team less often as they stabilize, and same-day or next-day appointments are frequently available.
