How Facilities Are Verified
Last Updated: August 1, 2026
Current Status
We want to be direct about this: RehabSeek's state directory pages are live, but individual treatment center profiles are still being populated and verified. Where a state page doesn't yet show center listings, it says so plainly rather than showing placeholder or unverified providers. We'd rather have an honest "still verifying" notice than a listing we can't stand behind.
What "Verified" Means, Once a Listing Is Live
A listing that carries the "SAMHSA-Verified" or "Verified" label on RehabSeek has had each of the following checked directly against a primary source, not inferred from a facility's own marketing:
- Accreditation or licensure status — confirmed against SAMHSA's treatment facility directory (findtreatment.gov) or the relevant state licensing board, not just claimed by the facility.
- Contact information — phone number and address confirmed as active and correct at time of verification.
- Services offered — cross-checked against the facility's licensed scope of services, not just what's advertised on their own site.
What We Don't Verify
Verification confirms accreditation, licensure, and contact accuracy. It does not constitute a clinical endorsement, a guarantee of outcomes, or a review of care quality — RehabSeek is not a medical provider and doesn't evaluate treatment efficacy at individual facilities.
Re-verification
Once listings are live, each will show a "last verified" date, and we plan to re-check accreditation/licensure status on a recurring basis rather than treating verification as a one-time check at listing creation.
