The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency responsible for health efforts to promote the mental health of the United States. One of its duties is the oversight of opioid treatment facilities, which are centers which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid addiction and dependency. Drug prescribed are drugs like methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs which stop curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid addicted people. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab centers in Polacca are programs that are officially permitted to give out the drugs used in MAT being they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. One of these requirements is that MAT clients must also get ancillary services aside from medication such as psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.
An opioid treatment program can receive initial certification while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation facilities accredited by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. In addition, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehabilitation facility is approved to operate, it must be re-certified each year or every 3 years depending on the type of certification that was given.
