The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department in charge of health efforts to promote the behavioral health of the nation. One of its obligations is the oversight of opioid treatment facilities, which are centers that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to clients who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medicine prescribed are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs which help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid addicted people. SAMSHA certified opioid treatment facilities in Papaikou are programs which are officially allowed to give out the medicines used in MAT being they maintain their certification and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also get ancillary services in addition to medication such as psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.
An opioid treatment program 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 rehabilitation facilities accredited by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. In addition, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA office. Once an opioid treatment center is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified each year or every 3 years contingent upon the type of certification it has been given.
