The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, "SAMHSA" for short, is the government agency responsible for health efforts to advance the mental health of the United States. One of its responsibilities is the oversight of opioid treatment programs, which are centers who provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to clients who are experiencing opioid dependency and addiction. Medications administered are drugs such as methadone, buprenorphine and other drugs that help curb cravings and withdrawal for opioid dependent people. SAMSHA certified opioid rehabilitation centers in Williamsburg are programs who are legally permitted to give out the drugs used in MAT being they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. One of these requirements is that MAT individuals must also get ancillary services aside from medication such as counseling or behavioral therapy.
An opioid rehabilitation facility can receive initial approval documentation while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation facilities accredited by SAMSHA must be licensed by the state in which they operate. Likewise, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration through a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehab program is approved to operate, they need to get re-certified every year or every 3 years contingent upon the type of certification that was granted.
