Drug prescribed are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs which stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab centers in Dover are programs who are legally permitted to distribute the drugs used in MAT as long as they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also get auxiliary benefits aside from medicine like counseling or behavioral therapy.

An opioid treatment facility can receive initial certification while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation facilities authorized by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. Likewise, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehab center is certified, it must be re-certified every year or every 3 years contingent upon the type of accreditation it has been given.
