SAMHSA Certified Opioid Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Leon, NY.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department in charge of efforts to promote the behavioral health of the United States. One of its obligations is the oversight of opioid rehab facilities, which are centers that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to individuals who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medications given are drugs such as buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that help withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid treatment programs in Leon are programs who are legally allowed to distribute the medications used in MAT as long as they maintain their certification and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also receive ancillary services in addition to medicine like counseling or behavioral therapy.

An opioid rehab facility can get their basic approval documentation while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehab programs authorized by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. In addition, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehabilitation program is approved to operate, it must be re-certified every year or every 3 years depending on the type of certification that was granted.
