The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency responsible for efforts to promote the mental health of the U.S.. One of its obligations is the oversight of opioid treatment facilities, which are programs that offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medicine prescribed are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted clients. SAMSHA certified opioid treatment centers in Flint are programs who are legally permitted to distribute the medicines used in MAT as long as they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also get auxiliary services in addition to medication such as psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.
An opioid rehab facility can receive initial approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation programs authorized by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. Likewise, 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 every year or every 3 years contingent upon the kind of certification that was granted.
