Medicare is a sort of medical insurance created by the government for senior citizens, and also people who have certain disabilities and sicknesses. If an individual who has Medicare needs rehab for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehab will either be covered entirely by their Medicare insurance or to a significant extent. The one catch is, the individual will have to receive treatment from an alcohol and drugs detox facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to start treatment, they will also have to see their physician who must state that rehab services are medically needed, and the physician will generally approve what sort of rehabilitation the person will take part in. Medicare Part An and Part B cover different types of treatment providers. Part A covers an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program if the individual must be in a hospital because of their problem, and also the costs which they willwill have to pay for personally are identical to any other stay in a hospital. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient treatment inside a Medicare accepted center, and the individual will need to cover whatever Medicare Part B doesn't pay for with supplement insurance or they will have to self pay.
