The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency in charge of health efforts to advance the mental health of the United States. One of its duties is the oversight of opioid rehab programs, which are programs which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medicine given are drugs such as methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs that help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid addicted clients. SAMSHA certified opioid rehabilitation facilities in Lagro are programs who are officially permitted to distribute 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 individuals must also get ancillary benefits aside from medication such as counseling or behavioral therapy.

An opioid treatment center can receive initial certification while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, however, are required to get their full accreditation in a year. Opioid rehabilitation facilities authorized by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. In addition, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehabilitation program is certified, it must be re-certified every year or every three years contingent upon the type of certification it has been granted.
