Medicare is a type of health insurance developed by the U.S. government for senior citizens, and also people with certain disabilities and illnesses. If an individual that has Medicare needs rehab for cases of substance abuse, their rehabilitation will be either covered completely by their Medicare insurance or to a great extent. The only real exception is, the individual will need to receive treatment from your drugs and alcohol detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be permitted to commence rehab, they will also have to visit their physician who must state that treatment services are medically necessary, and the physician will generally approve what sort of rehabilitation the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of treatment solutions. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center in the event that the individual has to be in a hospital for their issue, and the costs which they willwill have to pay for personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehab in a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they will have to self pay.
