A requirement that MAT clients must also receive auxiliary services aside from medicine like counseling or behavioral therapy.

An opioid rehab program can get their basic approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, 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 approved to operate, they need to get re-certified every year or every three years depending on the type of certification it has been granted.
