Medicare is a kind of health care insurance developed by the government for senior citizens, along with those that have certain disabilities and illnesses. If someone who has Medicare needs rehabilitation for instances of substance abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a significant degree. The one exception is, the individual will have to acquire treatment from your drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to commence rehabilitation, they may also have to see their physician who must state that rehab services are medically necessary, and the doctor will usually approve what type of rehab the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of rehabilitation services. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program if the individual must be hospitalized for problem, and the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as any other stay in a hospital. Part B will partly cover outpatient rehab inside a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplement insurance coverage or they're going to have to self pay.
