Drug administered are drugs like methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs which help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid addicted clients.

A requirement that MAT clients must also get ancillary benefits aside from medicine such as counseling or behavioral therapy.

An opioid rehab facility can get their basic certification while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation facilities accredited by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. Likewise, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA branch. Once an opioid treatment program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified every year or every three years contingent upon the kind of certification it has been granted.
