The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency in charge of health efforts to advance the mental health of the United States. One of its responsibilities is the administering of opioid treatment programs, which are centers which provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to individuals who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medicine prescribed are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid addicted individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab facilities in Ventura are programs that are officially permitted to distribute the medicines used in MAT as long as they remain certified and continue to meet certain requirements. A requirement that MAT individuals must also get auxiliary benefits in addition to medication like counseling or behavioral therapy.
An opioid treatment facility can get their basic approval documentation while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment facilities authorized by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. In addition, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA office. Once an opioid rehabilitation facility is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified every year or every 3 years contingent upon the type of accreditation that was given.
