SAMHSA Certified Opioid Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Montgomery, MI.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency in charge of health efforts to promote the mental health of the nation. One of its obligations is the administering of opioid treatment facilities, which are programs which offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medications prescribed are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid dependent people. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab centers in Montgomery are programs who are legally permitted to dispense the medicines used in MAT as long as they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT individuals must also get ancillary services in addition to medicine such as counseling or behavioral therapy.

An opioid rehab facility can get their basic certification while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation programs accredited by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. Likewise, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA branch. Once an opioid treatment program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified every year or every 3 years depending on the kind of certification it has been granted.
