Referral Process

Referrals for Opioid Substitution Treatment can be received from your GP and other health professionals via fax or post to the location nearest you. We do accept referrals from any source, including self-referral, but we prefer that your GP is informed so that both services are involved with your treatment.

In rural Otago we need a referral to come from your GP or another health or social support agency.
