The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency responsible for efforts to promote the behavioral health of the nation. One of its obligations is the administering of opioid rehabilitation programs, which are programs which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to clients who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Drug given are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs which help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid dependent clients. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab centers in Oxford are programs which are legally permitted to dispense the drugs used in MAT as long as they maintain their certification and continue to meet certain requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also get auxiliary benefits aside from medication like counseling or behavioral therapy.
An opioid rehab facility can get their initial approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment programs authorized by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. Likewise, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA branch. Once an opioid treatment center is approved to operate, it must be re-certified each year or every 3 years depending on the kind of accreditation it has been given.
