Accredited methadone clinics are approved and certified by the SAMHSA to provide quality, updated, and effective methadone treatments in line with best practice guidelines and regularly monitored for their outcome successes. Methadone can only be dispensed for the treatment of opioid addictions by a certified OTP or affiliated hub. The SAMHSA website provides a list of these facilities by state.

Affiliated and DEA registered hubs may provide methadone treatments in intensive outpatient care facilities, hospitals, physicians offices, and health care facilities. These facilities may be limited in the methadone treatments they provide such as a medically supervised withdrawal using methadone or medical maintenance using methadone, but, depending on your needs, they can be very helpful to you in finding the nearest and most appropriate methadone clinic.

It is best to contact the facilities directly to verify openings, costs and payment options, policies, procedures, and the actual services and options they provide.
