Medicare is a form of medical health insurance designed by the government for seniors, and also individuals with specific disabilities and sicknesses. When someone who has Medicare needs treatment for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their treatment will be either covered fully by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant degree. The one catch is, the individual will need to obtain treatment from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be allowed to commence rehab, they can also get to visit their medical doctor who must state that rehab services are medically essential, and the physician will usually approve which kind of rehab the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover various kinds of treatment solutions. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program when the individual has to be in a hospital for their problem, along with the costs which they willwill have to cover personally are the same as every other stay in a hospital. Part B will partially cover outpatient rehabilitation within a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will have to cover whatever Part B doesn't pay for with supplemental insurance coverage or they'll have to self pay.
