SAMSHA certified opioid rehab facilities in Earle are programs which are legally permitted to give out the medicines used in MAT being they maintain their certification and continue to meet certain requirements.

An opioid rehab facility can receive basic certification while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehab 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 branch. Once an opioid rehabilitation program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified every year or every three years depending on the type of certification that was granted.
