Medicare is a type of health insurance designed by the U.S. government for older persons, and also individuals with certain disabilities and sicknesses. If a person who has Medicare needs rehabilitation for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered completely by their Medicare insurance or to a great extent. The only real exception is, the individual will have to acquire treatment from an alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to start rehabilitation, they will also have to see their physician who must declare that rehabilitation services are medically needed, and the doctor will typically approve what sort of rehabilitation the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of treatment services. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility if the individual needs to be in a hospital for problem, and also the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are identical to any other stay in a hospital. Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation within a Medicare accepted program, and the individual will have to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they've got to self pay.
