Bloomington officials still question methadone clinic plans

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Officials in Bloomington say they have questions about how a methadone clinic planned in the city will operate.

State officials announced in July that Bloomington would be among five locations for opioid-addiction treatment centers around Indiana, where treatments would include giving methadone.

Limestone Health President Matthew Flynn tells The (Bloomington) Herald-Times that the organization is still finalizing a Bloomington site.

City community resources director Beverly Calender-Anderson says local officials weren't consulted about Bloomington hosting a clinic that could have 500 patients in its first year.
