The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department responsible for efforts to promote the mental health of the U.S.. One of its obligations is the oversight of opioid treatment programs, which are programs that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to clients who are in the midst of opioid addiction and dependency. Drug given are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid dependent clients. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab programs in Lakeland are programs that are officially allowed to dispense the medicines used in MAT as long as they maintain their certification and always maintain the necessary requirements. One of these requirements is that MAT clients must also get ancillary services in addition to medicine such as counseling or behavioral therapy.
An opioid rehab program can receive initial approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehab programs 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 program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years contingent upon the type of accreditation that was granted.
