Medicare is a sort of health insurance designed by the federal government for senior citizens, as well as people with specific disabilities and diseases. If someone who has Medicare needs rehab for instances of substance abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered completely by their Medicare insurance or to a great extent. The one catch is, the person will need to acquire treatment from an alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to begin rehab, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must state that rehab services are medically essential, and the physician will typically approve which kind of rehabilitation the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of rehab solutions. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility if the individual has to be in a hospital for their issue, along with the costs that they will have to pay for personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partially cover outpatient treatment inside a Medicare accepted program, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance coverage or they'll have to self pay.
