The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department responsible for efforts to advance the behavioral health of the U.S.. One of its obligations is the administering of opioid rehab programs, which are programs that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to clients who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medicine given are drugs such as methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs which stop curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid dependent individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid treatment centers in Three Forks are programs that are officially permitted to dispense the medicines used in MAT being they maintain their certification and continue to meet certain requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also get ancillary benefits aside from medicine like psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.
An opioid rehab facility can receive initial approval documentation while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment programs authorized by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. In addition, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA office. Once an opioid rehab program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified every year or every three years depending on the type of accreditation that was given.
