One of its obligations is the oversight of opioid rehab facilities, which are centers who offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to people who are experiencing opioid addiction and dependency. Drug administered are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid addicted people. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab facilities in Otto are programs that are legally permitted to dispense the medicines used in MAT being they maintain their certification and continue to meet certain requirements. One of these requirements is that MAT clients must also get auxiliary benefits in addition to medicine like counseling or behavioral therapy.

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. Likewise, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA office. Once an opioid rehabilitation program is certified, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years depending on the kind of accreditation that was given.
