One of its responsibilities is the oversight of opioid rehab programs, which are centers which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to individuals who are in the midst of opioid addiction and dependency. Medicine given are drugs like methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs which help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid dependent individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab facilities in Asheville are programs who are legally allowed to dispense the medications used in MAT being they maintain their certification and continue to meet certain requirements. A requirement that MAT individuals must also get auxiliary benefits aside from medicine such as counseling or behavioral therapy.
An opioid rehab center can get their initial approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, however, are required to get their full accreditation in a year. Opioid rehab facilities authorized 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 rehabilitation facility is certified, they need to get re-certified each year or every 3 years depending on the type of certification that was given.
