Opioid rehab facilities accredited by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. Likewise, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA office. Once an opioid treatment program is certified, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years depending on the kind of certification it has been given.
