Medicare is a type of health care insurance developed by the federal government for senior citizens, as well as people with specific disabilities and diseases. If someone that has Medicare needs rehabilitation for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will either be covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a great degree. The only catch is, the person must obtain treatment coming from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to begin treatment, they will also have to visit their doctor who must state that rehab services are medically necessary, and the physician will usually approve what sort of rehab the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehabilitation solutions. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center when the individual has to be in a hospital because of their issue, as well as the costs which they willwill have to pay for personally are the same as any other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehab in a Medicare accepted program, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance or they'll have to self pay.
