Medicare is a type of health insurance designed by the government for older persons, and also people with certain disabilities and illnesses. If someone who has Medicare needs rehab for instances of substance abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered in full by their Medicare insurance or to a great degree. The only exception is, the individual will have to obtain treatment from your drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to begin rehab, they can also get to see their physician who must state that rehabilitation services are medically needed, and the physician will usually approve what sort of rehab the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of treatment services. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility in the event that the individual has to be in a hospital for issue, and the costs that they will have to cover personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment in the Medicare accepted program, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they will have to self pay.
