Medicare is a type of medical health insurance designed by the U.S. government for older folks, in addition to people who have certain disabilities and diseases. If someone that has Medicare needs rehab for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their treatment will be either covered fully by their Medicare insurance or to a great degree. The only real exception is, the individual will need to obtain treatment from your alcohol and drugs rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to begin rehab, they can also get to see their medical doctor who must declare that rehab services are medically needed, and the physician will generally approve what sort of rehab the individual will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of rehabilitation solutions. Medicare Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted center in the event that the individual needs to be in a hospital for his or her issue, and also 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 in a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will have to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they've got to self pay.
