Medicare is a sort of health insurance designed by the government for older folks, as well as those that have certain disabilities and sicknesses. When someone that has Medicare needs treatment for instances of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered completely by their Medicare health insurance or to a great degree. The only exception is, the individual will need to acquire treatment from the alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the individual will be allowed to commence treatment, they may also have to see their doctor who must state that rehabilitation services are medically essential, and the physician will usually approve which kind of treatment the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of rehabilitation services. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted facility in the event that the individual should be hospitalized for his or her problem, and the costs that they will have to cover personally are the same as every other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation inside a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance or they're going to have to self pay.
