How this clinic compares in Rapid City

This is an outpatient provider: you attend an appointment and go home the same day, with the prescription sent to a pharmacy.

Lifeways is one of 14 buprenorphine providers listed in Rapid City. Its combination of coverage and access is unique among them.

What stands out here

  • It treats adolescents. Only 3 of 14 Rapid City clinics do (21%).

What it does not report

  • No record that it accepts private insurance. 64% of Rapid City clinics do, so this is worth confirming rather than assuming.

Worth asking when you call

  • Whether they are taking new patients, which changes faster than the registry updates.
  • The self-pay price for a first visit, and whether the medication is billed separately.
  • How soon a first appointment is available, and what to bring.
