Medicare is a kind of health care insurance created by the government for senior citizens, and also those that have specific disabilities and diseases. If a person that 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 significant extent. The only catch is, the person will have to obtain treatment from your drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be allowed to commence treatment, they can also get to visit their medical doctor who must declare that rehab services are medically necessary, and the doctor will usually approve what type of rehabilitation the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover a variety of treatment solutions. Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program when the individual needs to be hospitalized because of their problem, as well as the costs that they will have to pay for personally are the same as any other hospital stay. Medicare Part B will partly cover outpatient rehabilitation within a Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will have to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplement insurance or they will have to self pay.
