One of its responsibilities is the administering of opioid treatment programs, which are programs that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to individuals who are in the midst of opioid dependency and addiction. Drug prescribed are drugs like buprenorphine, methadone, and other drugs that stop withdrawal and curb cravings for opioid addicted individuals. SAMSHA certified opioid rehab facilities in Metaline Falls are programs that are officially allowed to give out the drugs used in MAT as long as they remain certified and always maintain the necessary requirements. A requirement that MAT clients must also receive ancillary benefits aside from medication like psychotherapy, behavioral therapy or counseling.

An opioid treatment center can get their initial certification while working towards becoming fully accredited, but must become fully accredited within a year. Opioid rehabilitation facilities authorized by SAMSHA need to get licensed also by their own state. Likewise, they need to list themselves with the Drug Enforcement Administration via a local DEA branch. Once an opioid rehab facility is certified, they need to get re-certified each year or every three years contingent upon the kind of certification it has been granted.
