Jails in Kansas Expand Opioid Treatment Access
Kansas jails including Sedgwick County now allow continued medication assisted treatment for inmates with opioid addiction. The shift follows growing evidence that keeping buprenorphine and methadone in care reduces overdose risk after release. Sedgwick County began the policy in 2020 under a grant funded program, with 207 participants to date.
