Medicare is a sort of health care insurance created by the U.S. government for older persons, along with individuals with certain disabilities and illnesses. If someone who has Medicare needs rehabilitation for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their treatment will be either covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a great extent. The one exception is, the individual will have to obtain treatment from an alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to commence rehab, they will also have to visit their physician who must state that treatment services are medically needed, and the physician will typically approve what sort of rehab the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehabilitation services. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program when the individual should 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 partially cover outpatient rehabilitation in a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance coverage or they'll have to self pay.
