About

westvirginia.clinic is an independent, non-commercial directory of West Virginia healthcare clinics. We aggregate NPI-verified provider records from the federal NPPES registry across primary care, specialty care, mental health, pediatrics, OB/GYN, and FQHCs/urgent care. West Virginia faces ongoing opioid crisis response, rural access challenges, and a unique Black Lung Program serving coal miners and former miners — we surface that context alongside major health systems. We are not affiliated with the State of West Virginia, the West Virginia Board of Medicine, or any health system, and we do not accept paid placement. Information here is for residents — not medical advice.

West Virginia licensing, Medicaid, and health-system context

Who licenses West Virginia clinicians

Physician licensure in West Virginia is administered by the West Virginia Board of Medicine. License verification is available through the Board's online lookup at wvbom.wv.gov. Osteopathic physicians are licensed by the separate West Virginia Board of Osteopathic Medicine.

How West Virginia Medicaid is organized

West Virginia Medicaid is administered by the Bureau for Medical Services (BMS). Most members are enrolled in Mountain Health Trust, a managed care program delivered through four plans:

  • Aetna Better Health of West Virginia — serving families, adults, and behavioral health populations.
  • The Health Plan — a regional plan serving northern WV counties.
  • UniCare Health Plan of West Virginia — an Elevance Health subsidiary serving WV members statewide.
  • CareSource West Virginia — a nonprofit managed care organization serving lower-income populations.

Enrollment and eligibility questions are handled through WV PATH (Peoples' Access To Help) at dhhr.wv.gov. The Medicaid member helpline is 1-800-642-8589.

Major West Virginia health systems (factual listing only)

The largest multi-hospital systems serving West Virginia residents include WVU Medicine, Mon Health, CAMC (Charleston Area Medical Center), and Mountain Health Network. This is a factual listing only — westvirginia.clinic does not endorse, recommend, or rank health systems.

Opioid crisis response

West Virginia has been significantly impacted by the opioid epidemic. The state operates a network of Opioid Treatment Programs (OTPs) and medication-assisted treatment (MAT) providers. Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) are key access points for low-income residents seeking treatment.

Black Lung Program

Coal miners and former miners with occupational lung disease may be eligible for the federal Black Lung Benefits Program administered by the U.S. Department of Labor. Designated Black Lung clinics in West Virginia provide specialized diagnostic and treatment services. For program information, see dol.gov/agencies/owcp/dcmwc.

Behavioral-health crisis resources

If you or someone you know is in crisis, call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (free, confidential, 24/7). If life is in immediate danger, call 911.
