St. Mary's County: One Practice, Three Service Lines

St. Mary's County sits on Maryland's western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, anchored by Naval Air Station Patuxent River — the largest employer in the county and a major hub for military, DoD civilian, and defense-contractor work across Southern Maryland. Icon Medicine consolidates three core service lines — medication-assisted treatment for opioid and alcohol use disorder, primary care, and chronic-condition management — under a single board-certified telehealth practice that sees Maryland patients from their home or office.

Whether you live in Leonardtown, Lexington Park, California, Mechanicsville, Charlotte Hall, Hollywood, Park Hall, Great Mills, Piney Point, Valley Lee, or St. Mary's City, your St. Mary's County telehealth visit works around your schedule — not the other way around. Same-day appointments are available across all three service lines, and Maryland Medicaid covers MAT without prior authorization.

Our provider holds full Maryland licensure and DEA buprenorphine authority. Every St. Mary's County patient is covered under 42 CFR Part 2 — stricter than HIPAA — which matters especially for the county's large military, federal civilian, and defense-contractor workforce tied to NAS Patuxent River and the surrounding Southern Maryland mission set.

Maryland's 2026 Telehealth SUD Parity Rules

Maryland's telehealth parity law — codified in Health-General §15-103 and reinforced by the Maryland Department of Health's 2024–2026 SUD telehealth guidance — requires Maryland Medicaid and most commercial payers to cover telehealth substance use disorder treatment at parity with in-person care. This includes buprenorphine induction, ongoing MAT follow-ups, and AUD medication management delivered to any Maryland address.

For St. Mary's County residents, that means same-day Suboxone via telehealth is a covered benefit — not a workaround. Payer copays, prior-authorization requirements, and audio-only visit coverage now follow the same rules in-person treatment does.

Local Suboxone pickup — what St. Mary's County should know

Once your prescriber sends a Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) prescription to your St. Mary's County pharmacy, pickup is typically same-day. Most major chains in Leonardtown, Lexington Park, California, Charlotte Hall, and Hollywood stock 8mg/2mg and 12mg/3mg films, but availability rotates — call ahead before driving.

If your first-choice pharmacy is out of stock, Icon Medicine can transfer the prescription electronically to a second St. Mary's County location (Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Giant, Safeway, or a local independent). Stock-out transfers usually resolve within a few hours.

Yes. All substance use disorder treatment records at Icon Medicine are protected under 42 CFR Part 2 — a federal law stricter than HIPAA. Your employer, family members, law enforcement, and insurance carrier cannot access your records without your written consent, which is critical for St. Mary's County's military, federal civilian, and defense-contractor workforce tied to NAS Patuxent River.

Icon Medicine coordinates SUD and primary care in the same telehealth practice. Buprenorphine works for both opioid and kratom dependence; naltrexone can address both OUD (after detox) and AUD.
Buprenorphine micro-induction (low-dose or ABSI induction) lets patients start buprenorphine without waiting for full withdrawal — critical for patients still using fentanyl or long-acting opioids. Icon Medicine providers guide St. Mary's County patients through micro-induction via secure telehealth visits.

Every appointment — evaluation, follow-up, medication refill — is via secure video. Maryland's 2026 telehealth parity rules ensure your insurer covers it at the same rate as in-person care.
