The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government department responsible for efforts to advance the mental health of the United States. One of its obligations is the oversight of opioid treatment programs, which are programs that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to individuals who are experiencing opioid addiction and dependency. Medications prescribed are drugs like methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs which help withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid treatment facilities in Millers Tavern are programs who are officially allowed to give out the medicines used in MAT being 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 psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.
An opioid rehab program can receive basic approval documentation while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation programs authorized by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. In addition, they must register with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA office. Once an opioid treatment center is approved to operate, it must be re-certified each year or every 3 years depending on the kind of accreditation it has been given.
