The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department in charge of efforts to promote the behavioral health of the U.S.. One of its obligations is the oversight of opioid rehab programs, which are programs which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid addiction and dependency. 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 centers in Lithopolis are programs who are legally permitted to give out the drugs used in MAT as long as they remain certified and continue to meet certain requirements. A requirement that MAT individuals must also receive ancillary services aside from medicine such as counseling or behavioral therapy.
An opioid rehab center can get their initial certification while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment facilities accredited by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. Likewise, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA office. Once an opioid treatment center is certified, they need to get re-certified each year or every 3 years contingent upon the type of certification it has been given.
