An opioid rehab program can get their basic certification while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation programs accredited by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. In addition, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehab program is certified, it must be re-certified each year or every three years contingent upon the kind of accreditation that was granted.
