Yes. All clinics in the U.S. not only have to comply with the Federal regulations, they must also apply to one of the SAMHSA/CSAT approved accreditation bodies for accreditation. During the application phase, the applying program is granted provisional certification by SAMHSA pending the outcome of the accreditation survey. If a program is unable to receive or retain accreditation, it cannot become or remain SAMHSA certified and consequently, will need to surrender the SAMHSA Certification.
