Medicare is a sort of medical health insurance developed by the government for seniors, and also people with specific disabilities and illnesses. When someone who has Medicare needs rehab for cases of drug or alcohol abuse, their rehabilitation will either be covered completely by their Medicare health insurance or to a significant extent. The only real exception is, the individual will have to receive treatment coming from a drug rehab facility which accepts Medicare. Before the person will be permitted to start treatment, they can also get to see their primary care physician who must declare that rehabilitation services are medically needed, and the doctor will usually approve which kind of rehabilitation the person will do. Medicare Part An and Part B cover several types of rehab providers. Medicare Part A pays for an inpatient stay in a Medicare accepted program in the event that the individual should be hospitalized for issue, and also the costs that they will have to cover personally are the same as any other stay in a hospital. Part B will partially cover outpatient rehab in the Medicare accepted facility, and the individual will have to cover whatever Part B doesn't cover with supplemental insurance coverage or they've got to self pay.
