Overview
- COFEPRIS announced Thursday that it will incorporate Tamaulipas’ Program for Regularization of Addiction Rehabilitation Centers into its national sanitary management model beginning in 2027.
- Tamaulipas completed a first phase that identified 94 facilities and certified 41 centers across nine municipalities after a diagnostic and staged support process.
- The state deployed a 14-agency coordination model that provides outreach, technical guidance, administrative help and civil-protection advice instead of relying solely on punitive inspections.
- Governor Américo Villarreal Anaya said his government invested 12 million pesos in the first phase to help centers meet sanitary and administrative requirements and to improve care conditions.
- Officials say the next steps are to expand coverage, set measurable indicators for recovery and reintegration, and build federal and state capacity to monitor and evaluate the program as it scales nationwide.
