The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency in charge of health efforts to advance the behavioral health of the nation. One of its responsibilities is the oversight of opioid treatment programs, which are programs that offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to clients who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Drug administered are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs which stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid dependent individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehabilitation facilities in Laie are programs which are officially permitted to dispense the medicines used in MAT as long as they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also receive ancillary services aside from medication like counseling or behavioral therapy.
An opioid treatment center can receive basic approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment facilities accredited by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. In addition, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA office. Once an opioid rehab program is certified, it must be re-certified each year or every 3 years depending on the kind of accreditation it has been granted.
