Medications prescribed are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs which help withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab programs in Reno are programs who are legally permitted to dispense 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 get auxiliary benefits in addition to medicine like psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.

An opioid rehab facility can receive basic approval documentation while they endeavor to get their full accreditation, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid treatment facilities accredited by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. In addition, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehab program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years depending on the type of certification it has been given.
