This article provided a comprehensive overview of challenges that African Americans with disabilities residing in rural areas often face in the United States when accessing telehealth treatment to mitigate opioid misuse. A scoping literature review was conducted focusing on this target population, telehealth, disabilities, opioid treatment, and rural healthcare systems. Systematic searches on eight electronic databases were carried out in line with the study's aims. The results identified treatment benefits and advantages, expansion challenges, and multicultural considerations for telehealth delivery. There may be a need to increase rehabilitation research in this area to inform needed changes in policies and practice.
