A requirement that MAT individuals must also get ancillary services aside from medicine such as psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.

An opioid treatment program can get their initial certification while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation programs accredited 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 rehab facility is approved to operate, it must be re-certified each year or every three years depending on the kind of certification that was granted.
