Medicare is a kind of health insurance designed by the government for senior citizens, in addition to those that have specific disabilities and illnesses. When someone who has Medicare needs treatment for cases of substance abuse, their treatment will either be covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a great degree. The only exception is, the person must acquire treatment from an alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to commence rehabilitation, they may also have to visit their doctor who must declare that treatment services are medically needed, and the physician will usually approve what type of rehab the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of treatment providers. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center when the individual needs to be in a hospital for his or her problem, as well as the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as every other stay in a hospital. Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment in a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they're going to have to self pay.
