SAMHSA Certified Opioid Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Loma, MT.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department responsible for efforts to advance the behavioral health of the nation. One of its duties is the oversight of opioid treatment programs, which are centers which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to individuals who are experiencing opioid addiction and dependency. Medicine prescribed are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted people. SAMSHA certified opioid treatment facilities in Loma are programs who are legally allowed to distribute the medications 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 like psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.

An opioid rehab program can receive basic 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. Likewise, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA branch. Once an opioid treatment facility is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years depending on the kind of certification it has been given.
